Georges Thurston

Georges Thurston (December 29, 1951 – June 18, 2007) was a Quebec singer, author and composer and radio show host.

In the 1970s, he worked with several other Quebec artists including Robert Charlebois, Claude Dubois, Tony Roman, Nanette Workman and Michel Pagliaro.

He is also featured as back up singer, on a 45RPM Hey Lord-Valentine (1972 release) by local singer-songwriter Robert Salagan.

Thurston was one of the prominent figures in dance and R&B music in Quebec during the 1970s and 1980s and covered songs by other artists including the Beatles hit Let It Be in 1995.

The title song, a cover of Leo Sayer's Easy to Love, would later gain success in the early 1990s when 800,000 copies were sold in Europe.
