Tommy Hunt has enjoyed an extraordinary career, dating back to the 50s, during which he was a member of the legendary Flamingos, singing on some of their biggest, best-known records

In 1961 he quit to go solo, registering a huge R&Bhit with his very frst 45, 'Human', and cutting the original version of 'IJust Don't Know What To Do With Myself'. He later moved to Europe where he became a living Northern Soul legend, and he spent much of his subsequent life based in the UK, appearing at pan- European R&R/ Doo Wop festivals and Soul weekenders.

Tommy has been inducted into the "Vocal Group Hall Of Fame", the "Doo Wop Hall Of Fame" and the "Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame". He was still performing occasionally, whenever his health permitted, into his very late eighties.
