Alan Tam

Alan Tam [谭咏麟] was, along with Leslie Che­ung, a big name in Hong Kong can­topop dur­ing the 1980s. All I have is a cas­sette made in HK, with no Eng­lish on it. The songs are all “laid-back” bal­lads that would sat­isfy any Per­ry Como or Bar­ry White fan. The ones I like best on the tape are “水中花” and “擁抱”, strict­ly on the basis of the smooth­ness of the singing. Not for any­one who has a low thresh­old for mush.
