Arnold George Dorsey, better known as ENGELBERT HUMPERDINCK, grew up in England, playing saxophone until his big break at the age of 17, when he appeared on Sunday Night at the Palladium. Debuting his now gold signature single, "Release Me," ENGELBERT 's appearance caused the song to skyrocket up the Hit Parade, preventing The Beatles from reaching their customary #1 position with "Penny Lane." Since then, he has garnered 64 gold and 23 platinum records, including hits like "Spanish Eyes," "A Man Without Love," "After the Lovin'," and "Winter World of Love."
