The Kalin Twins, Harold and Herbert, were born February 16, 1934 in Port Jervis, New York. They recorded several songs, that were either minor hits or missed the charts completely. However, when their management cam across a demo of the song, When, written by Paul Evans and Jack Reardon, their career took a sharp turn toward success. Sadly, they both passed away within a year of each other. Harold, known as Hal, passed August 24, 2005 as a result of an automobile accident, while Herbert, known as Herbie, died of a heart attack July 21, 2016.
While they recorded many songs, they really only scored with two of their releases, and I have both for your votes. Next week on Treasure Island Oldies, Voice Your Choice presents The Kalin Twins.
Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either Forget Me Not or When. I'll play the winner on next week's 22nd Anniversary special.
