The very same, Malc. He had a hit in 1962 with "Our Favourite Melodies" (covered here by Craig Douglas!). It was one of the first few releases on Stateside - I bought it 45 years ago after hearing it on the EMI show on Radio Luxembourg. I could still sing it word for word if prompted - can't remember a thing about RDJ, though, but I do remember a short interview, where the issue of whether or not it was the same bloke came up, in some mag in 1978 and him answering in the affirmative!
