Al Martino (Jasper Cini) (October 7, 1927 – October 13, 2009)
Al Martino’s recording of “Here in My Heart” made history as the first number one
on the UK Singles Chart, on 14 November 1952, the song remained in the top
position for nine weeks in the United Kingdom, setting a record for the longest consecutive run at number one, a record which, over 50 years on, has only been
beaten by five other singles.
