Gerry Monroe (20 January 1933 – October 1989) was an English pop singer , who enjoyed brief popularity in the early 1970s.
Born Henry Morris in South Shields , County Durham , England, Monroe scored five Top 40 hits on the UK Singles Chart in 1970-71.[1] A former colliery worker, he was spotted on Hughie Green 's Opportunity Knocks TV show by Les Reed , who signed him to a long-term deal with Chapter One Records. He had a high and distinctive falsetto voice , and managed to notch up chart hits for the Chapter One label , including "Sally ", a song first made popular by Gracie Fields in the 1930s. Monroe's version was co-produced and co-arranged by Reed.[2] In 1997 an album , Sally: Pride of Our Alley , was released on compact disc on the Gold Dust label.[3] Monroe also recorded a tribute to Bobby Charlton in 1973, following the footballer's retirement, called "Goodbye Bobby Boy".
Monroe died in October 1989 at the age of 56.[4]
