C&C RECORDS
Lou Christie had hit after hit beginning in the early 1960’s and continuing through the early years of the British Invasion; I just loved his muscular falsetto. Actually his real name is Lugee Sacco.
When his first single “The Gypsy Cried” was released on the tiny C&C Records label, the artist was shown as “Lou Christie” without his knowledge or permission. He has been quoted as saying: “I was pissed off about it for 20 years. I wanted to keep my name and be a one-named performer, just ‘Lugee’.”
