His sudden passing from a heart attack aged 79 announced on 22nd October.
Best remembered for his haunting vocal version of Windmills of Your Mind, its a timeless classic with very poignant lyrics that reflect
something of the escapism from reality of the 1960s.
Both of Hank's versions I am sure are on many peoples regular playlists.

I recall his regular appearances of the daily BBC TV programme Tonight in the late 50s, playing, I'm pretty sure, his Martin D28.

He also co-starred with Stephanie Powers in the short lived 'The Girl From UNCLE' TV series in the late 1960s.
