Georgie Shaw

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Georgie Shaw was an American popular musician. He recorded a song called "Let Me Go, Devil," which was about alcoholism. It was later rewritten as "Let Me Go, Lover." He released four Top 40 singles in the U.S. in the 1950s, all on Decca Records. "Till We Two Are One" was his biggest hit, reaching #7 in 1954. That same year "Someone Else's Love Song" reached #29. Jimmy Leyden and his orchestra and chorus accompanied Georgie on those two recordings. "No Arms Can Ever Hold You (Like These Arms of Mine)" hit #23 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1955, and "Go On with the Wedding", featuring Kitty Kallen, hit #39 in 1956. Jack Pleis led the orchestra behind the last two recordings. Georgie passed away September 2007 in Philadelphia, Pa.
