Singapore 60s Johnny Lion, Harry Cheok Sings Rolling Stones @ Chinese Swimming Club

UP TO 600 VIEWS

Harry Cheok, retired businessman

Watch the videos. He's good!

Harry Cheok won the Johnny Lion of Singapore Competition in the 60s with his group, Willy's Jokers. I have known him for some years now. Harry has kindly allowed me to post his videos when he was on stage at the Chinese Swimming Club. But he wasn't singing the late Mr. Lion's favourites. 

If you noticed the date, he is still performing today. Being a retired business person, he has time to spare and jams with his guitar group. I love his flamboyant style and cute personality. Watch the ladies at the bar and see their reaction. Harry is also an accomplished ukulele player and guitarist.

The local folks would say, "He can *gelek well!" Like Mick Jagger. 

Thanks Harry for your friendship and sparing the videos. 

Can you guess the songs he is singing? 

NB:

*gelek  = shimmy and shake.

Johnny Lion was a singer from Holland who was accompanied by the Dutch guitar group, The Jumping Jewels. They were very popular in the 60s and 70s and Johnny and the J.Js. have appeared in Singapore.

A rousing song from the Rolling Stones 

and made famous by Mick Jagger.

Watch the ladies at the bar watching Harry. 

They love him!

With his group: Willy's Jokers in the 60s.
