 Monolith, I was expecting you to say: ".... No, and don't call me Shirley"(ha ha) but you didn't "bite". First time I came across John Leyton was at Mt. Wilga Rehabilitation Centre in Hornsby(an outer northern suburb of Sydney, NSW) in 1972. I was resident there for a couple of months and another resident had a British HMV single of him doing "Beautiful Dreamer", an up-tempo version. The singe was of about 1963 vintage. The second time I came across John Leyton I picked up a copy of "Cupboard Love" a few years ago(sadly the record was accidentally recently damaged). I think I managed to get the track onto a CD before it was damaged and I have it(the CD) somewhere about.

 Not only was he in The Great Escape but I think he has the distinction of having his (major) character survive but also to be still alive in real life! :thumbsup:

 Surely you're joking, Monolith!

Nope.
Looked up his discography on Wiki and I know the song Johnny Remember Me, but not aware of who did it. So his name means nothing to me.
80 or 90% of the artists I've seen on this site I'd never heard of before I came here.

 Yes it is
John Leyton started his career as Johnny Leyton, making two U.K. top ten records in the early sixties before attempting to cross over into films.

Never heard of him.

 Apparently during production it was pointed out to them, but they decided to keep it East because it sounded better/more exotic.

 Yeah. Those who named the movie were geographically challenged!
Just noted John Leyton in the cast list, is it the very same John Leyton who recorded for Top Rank, then HMV in the early 1960s?

 Fun Fact:
Krakatoa is, in fact, west of Java. LOL
