Len Barry

Len Barry (born Leonard Borisoff, 12 June 1942, West Philadelphia) was an American vocalist and musician. In 1958 he first appeared on record as the lead vocalist with The Boss-Tones, singing "Mope-Itty Mope". Barry also was a member of the singing group The Dovells from 1957 to 1963, before quitting to go solo. As a predominately blue-eyed soul singer, he recorded two hits in 1965 and 1966 for Decca Records: "1-2-3", and "Like A Baby", both of which made the Top Ten of the UK Singles Chart. Both songs were part composed by Barry White and Dave White, one of the original Juniors from Danny & the Juniors. When the hits dried up, Barry continued performing his entertaining stage act, and later moved into songwriting and production work with WMOT Productions. Read more on Last.fm.
