Bertie Higgins: Key Largo

Sing it with us: "WE HAD IT ALL...just like Bogie and Bacall!"

This song, "Key Largo"  was big in early 1982, making it all the way up to #8 on the Billboard charts. Bertie Higgins also recorded a song based on another Humphrey Bogart movie--"Casablanca" was a huge hit in China and Japan, but he was a one hit wonder in the United States.

Check out Mr. Higgins in this appearance on Solid Gold, with the added bonus of the intro by Andy Gibb and Marilyn McCoo. (Sadly, no Solid Gold dancers.)
