Description

The voice of Robert Young lifts him — and us — out of today’s world of shallow noise and here-today-gone-tomorrow sensations. Of course, people will make comparisons. They say he is like this famous singer or that. But whether you agree or nor, you’ll note that all the comparisons are with superstars, singers with one thing in common — quality. And that’s the truth about the voice of Robert Young. It’s a voice of lasting quality. It’s the voice for love songs. The voice of today. And the voice of tomorrow.

Above all it’s а voice that will last. So in buying this “Portrait of Robert Young” you have made an investment. This isn’t one of those discs that you’ll dig out in a year’s time and say whatever-did-I-see-in-that! That is a record with a voice that you’ll always be able to listen to. Over and over again. It’s a voice which really matters. But for you added enjoyment the looks of Robert Young are almost as good as his voice — and that makes him a natural and international star.

Robert Young is 27, (he was born in England, in Newcastle) and is as at home with opera as he is with pop. This versatility in the hall-mark of his voice. Here, inside this cover, you can discover all the strength and all the tenderness of Robert Young, the man with the voice of love.
