The pop duo were best known for their UK Christmas Number 1 hit from 1982, "Save Your Love",[1] which remained at the top of the charts for four weeks.
Pagliari was born into a large impoverished family in Blera, Lazio, in 1940, where he exhibited a musical aptitude from an early age and joined the church choir.
Winning a place in a school for professional waiters, he instituted a career in five-star restaurants in several countries.
Pagliari settled in the West Midlands, England in 1975, and entered the New Faces talent contest on television, where songwriter Johnny Edward was impressed with his vocals and utilised him for his ballad "Save Your Love", with the single gaining chart status internationally in the Netherlands, Belgium and Norway.
Pagliari would continue performing on cruise ships, singing at his son's restaurant and recording six further solo albums.
