In Remembrance—Love Songs & Lost Treasures (CD) | Mint (M) Mint (M)

Born in Oklahoma, raised in Texas, and beloved the world over, B.J. Thomas enjoyed a career that spanned six decades and over 70 million records sold. It began with the Houston-based band The Triumphs, when as lead singer he covered his father's favorite Hank Williams classic "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry," which led to Scepter Records to buy out his contract and take the song to the national top 10. Hit after hit then followed for B.J. as he mixed genres effortlessly, joining legendary Memphis producer Chips Moman for a series of smashes (“Hooked on a Feeling,” “The Eyes of a New York Woman,” “I Just Can't Help Believing”) and he hit paydirt with the #1 Bacharach-David hit “Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head” from the Oscar-winning score for Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid. B.J.'s cross-over to country was cemented with his 1975 pop/country/adult contemporary million-seller “(Hey, Won't You Play) Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song.” Simultaneously, B.J. became the first platinum-selling Contemporary Christian recording artist with a string of hugely popular albums in the late 1970s and early 1980s which also won him five Grammys and numerous other awards. Along the way, B.J. made countless television appearances and performed thousands of concerts into 2020 until the Corona virus pandemic brought an end to touring. His voice and energy remained almost supernaturally strong and B.J. eagerly looked forward to returning to the stage until cancer claimed his life on May 29, 2021 at the age of 78. 1.
