Thanks for the memories Gary ! You had a helluva run in the 60's. All the great music. Maybe you could host or be an ambassador, but time has taken your voice, and it may be time to call it a career.

Absolutely ridiculous comments. If you were there in the beginning with Gary you would understand how much we appreciate his music, stage presence, and singing. He will always be the greatest. When you age along with your stars you appreciate how well they perform compared to everyone else . I only wish to have his stamina, personality, good looks, and incredible talent when aI am 81. No one compares to Gary Puckett- a true American con.

Just go back to Ed Sullivan show clips and he would get so out there with projection of his voice, you would think he's going to fail and yet, he reached ever depth of the song or the note amazingly hard, clear, strong... NEVER saw such a powerful singer as Gary Puckett in his prime years...

Wow! Such non believers in the comment section…. He did say he was dealing with a throat issue..from previous week. Anyhow I disagree. After seeing g him many times and when he’s on his game, not a better show/showman around.. I hope he never stops entertaining us. I’m sure he’s not doing for the money…. God bless Gary Puckett and hope to see him again soon…❤

I lived through the whole "Flower Power" era. You can believe what you want, but Gary Puckett and the Union Gap were laughed at by the "Flower Power" hippies. No one with beads and flowers in their hair would be caught dead listening to such blatantly commercial, Top 40 AM radio stuff like this. In fact, no self-respected hippie would listen to any of the acts on the cruise. None of it is "Flower Power" music; it's just the stuff that played incessantly on commercial AM radio stations during the "Flower Power" era. None of it had anything whatsoever to do with the hippie "Flower Power" movement. Like I said, any self-respecting hippie wouldn't be caught dead listening to any of this stuff.

Only a chosen few have had the pipes that this cat had.STFW if at 81 he has lost a step or two. It's goes without saying that nobody can hold onto their voice forever. None of you that wrote nasty stuff will never have what this man had. Oh and when you are 81 do you think that you could fill a hall with adoring fans that you have entertained and been a huge part of their lives. Grow up.
