Gilbert O'Sullivan comes in at No.19 with 'Where Did You Go To?'.
A British Singer / Songwriter, Gilbert got his first recording contract in the mid 1960s, but he struggled to make any real impact, so he sent demos to MAM records. In 1970 his song 'Nothing Rhymed' made the British Top 10. That led to a string of hits songs.
Gilbert won a major court case, championing the rights of songwriters and their music when he sued a rapper for sampling his music without permission.
During his first ten years in the music business he made a point of not dating, so that he could focus on his writing. The love bug caught him in 1980 when he married his Norwegian girlfriend. His new album is released this year, simply entitled 'Gilbert O'Sullivan'.
