Randbobit: RB Greaves

Ronald Bertram Aloysius "R. B." Greaves III has died.

Greaves lived in both the UK and the US, having a career in both places - this side of the Atlantic as Sonny Childes; in America as RB Greaves. His biggest hit was Take A Letter, Maria, an only slightly disturbing tale of a man getting his secretary to take down a note to his wife about her infidelity.

Greaves was 68; he had been ill with prostate cancer.
