THE PHANTOM

Chanteur US né le 30 janvier 1938, originaire de Mobile (Alabama), de son vrai nom Jerry Lott. Le "Phantom" a été découvert en 1958 par Pat Boone qui lui obtient un contrat chez Dot Records. En public, il chantait le visage recouvert d'un masque. En fait, il n'a enregistré qu'un single. dans les années quatre vingt, l'ancien protégé de Pat Boone, handicapé suite à un accident, s'est consacré à la religion et à la philosophie tout en écrivant des chansons.
