Hello all from the US,
My son and I have just spent a most enjoyable day down in Denver.
While there we dined at the Yard House which boasts 135 different beers on tap along with "Great Food & Classic Rock".
We looked at each other when along in the midst of the usual rock fare came Cliff's 'Devil Woman'.
While i personally enjoy the track, I found it an unusual choice this side of the Atlantic.
Maybe it had been a minor hit in some US markets. Does anyone know?
In any case, we really enjoyed the food, the beer and the music.
Only four days left in the snowy Colorado mountains,then back to NZ where I have heard that summer is well on its way.
Cheers,
JB

Hi

Cliff Richard has never achieved the same impact in the United States despite eight US Top 40 singles, three of which peaked in the Top 10, including the million-selling "Devil Woman" and "We Don't Talk Anymore" (with the latter, becoming the first act to reach the Hot 100's top 40 in the 1980s who had also been in that chart's top 40 in the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s). In the USA, his singles sales stand at around 10 million while his album sales are about 6 million. In Canada Richard achieved moderate success in the 1980s with a couple of albums gaining platinum status, he has sold around 5 million records there. He has remained a popular music, film, and television personality in Australia (where he has sold more than 5 million records), New Zealand, South Africa, Europe (especially in Germany, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Holland and Belgium) and Asia (especially Malaysia, Singapore, Japan and Hong Kong), and he retains a following in other countries also. He has sold more than 260 million records worldwide.

Hi Jay,
Thank you for the detailed response. Answered my question exactly.
I never seem to remember Wikipedia at times like this!
Cheers,
