Darlin' - Frankie Miller / Smokie / Poacher - Acoustic Guitar Rendition

"#Darlin'" is a song written in 1970 by English sax player Oscar Stewart Blandamer. There have been many recorded versions of the song, including those by David Rogers as a country song, and in a rock and blues version by Frankie Miller. Further famous versions were recorded by Tom Jones, Barbara Mandrell, Smokie and Johnny Reid.
"Stewart wrote his most successful song "Darlin" in 1970, but it wasn't until 1977 that the song was heard by the management of the British country band "Poacher" (who had won a British tv talent show "New Faces"). It was expected that "Darlin" would be a big hit for them, but despite a great deal of airplay it didn't happen. However, the single did make the US country charts, which was a rarity for a British act."

Well played Hans, I love this song, especially the Frankie Miller version.Frankie is from my country Scotland, and though he cannot perform anymore, we are very proud of him, what a brilliant vocalist he was.
