Paperback. Condition: Very Good. For 17 years Val Doonican had played and sung all over Ireland, Britain and Germany, in clubs, dance halls and theatres and it took just one major television show from the London Palladium in 1964 to turn him into a star and overnight success. His gentle voice and Irish humour endeared him to a massive audience of television viewers and his TV show ran for 25 years. Now, we have his complete life in a book which combines his previous two best selling autobiographies with new material bringing the story up-to-date, from early beginnings in a poor but close-knit family, Val paints a vivid, humorous and touching picture of his early years, from having to leave school because of his father's sudden death. He describes how, on his first day, the boss handed him a hammer 'with which I became remarkably adept, knocking inch nails into wooden boxes with such speed and accuracy that I would have made a worthy interlude on a game show'. Val talks about being discovered at the London Palladium, his rise to success and his unmistakable brand of entertainment and what it has meant to his millions of fans over the years. There are stories of the people he worked with, from Rolf Harris to James Galway, as well as the pitfalls of the job. The first time he topped the bill at the Palladium, Tommy Cooper forgot his name as he introduced him to a bewildered audience who were expecting Frankie Vaughan. Written with vivacity and humour Val Doonican: My Story My Life tells the story of the life and career of this remarkable entertainer. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Zettel. Kartonausriss mit Farbfoto von Doonican auf schwarzem Tonkarton montiert, Karton von Val Doonican mit blauem Stift signiert mit eigenhändigem Zusatz "Thanks" /// Michael Valentine ?Val? Doonican (* 3. Februar 1927 in Waterford, Irland; ? 1. Juli 2015 in Buckinghamshire, England) war ein irischer Sänger und Entertainer. Val Doonican war das achte und jüngste Kind der Familie. Sein Vater starb, als er 14 Jahre alt war. Doonican musste daraufhin die Schule verlassen und anfangen zu arbeiten. Mit sechs Jahren begann Doonican, in der Band seiner Schule zu spielen. Auch nach dem Ende seiner Schulzeit blieb er der Musik treu. Professionell trat er das erste Mal zusammen mit seinem Freund Bruce Clarke 1947 in Waterford auf. Eine Bewerbung beim irischen Rundfunk machte beide schnell zu regelmäßigen Gästen in Radiosendungen. 1951 verließ Doonican Irland und schloss sich der Gruppe Four Ramblers in England an. Die Gruppe trat unter anderem in der BBC-Radiosendung Riders of the Range und auf Luftwaffenbasen der US-amerikanischen Luftstreitkräfte in Großbritannien auf. Doonican blieb bis 1961 Mitglied der Four Ramblers; er hatte jedoch seit den späten 1950er Jahren auch erste Soloauftritte, zu denen ihn Anthony Newley überredet hatte, den die Four Ramblers auf Tournee begleiteten. Seine Auftritte waren zunächst nur 15 Minuten lang, er erhielt von der BBC aber bald 13 30-Minuten-Shows, die es ihm ermöglichten, seine Solokarriere zu beginnen. 1963 trat er zunächst in der ITV-Fernsehshow Sunday Night at the London Palladium auf. Die BBC bot ihm jedoch 1964 eine eigene Samstagabendshow an, die ab 1965 unter dem Namen The Val Doonican Show bis 1986 regelmäßig ausgestrahlt wurde und die unter anderem dem Komiker Dave Allen zum Durchbruch verhalf. Neben seiner Tätigkeit als Fernsehentertainer machte er auch weiterhin Musik und hatte in den 60er Jahren fünf Top-Ten-Hits. Sein Album Val Doonican Rocks, But Gently war das erste Album eines irischen Musikers, das in die britischen Charts kam und dort zum Jahreswechsel 1967/68 auch ein Nummer-eins-Hit war. Val Doonican veröffentlichte im Laufe seiner Karriere über 50 Alben. Als Doonicans Markenzeichen galten Pullover und Strickjacken, die er in den 1960er Jahren trug, ehe er in den 1970er Jahren zu Anzügen wechselte. Am Ende seiner Show sang er in einem Schaukelstuhl sitzend immer selbst noch ein Lied, was ebenfalls als typisch für ihn galt. Auch nachdem seine Fernsehshow abgesetzt worden war, trat Val Doonican noch bis 2009 auf. Val Doonican war begeisterter Golfspieler und malte Aquarelle, die auch öffentlich ausgestellt wurden. Val Doonican war 54 Jahre lang verheiratet und hatte zwei Töchter. /// Signiert signed signée autograph autographe autogramm /// Standort Wimregal Ill-Umschl2020-2 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 10.
