“Good Luck Charm” reached number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the week ending April 21, 1962, and remained at the top of the list for two weeks. The song was written by Aaron Schroeder and Wally Gold and recorded by Elvis in 1961.

As lead singer of The Mavericks, Raul Malo was a regular presence on country radio in the ’90s, charting six singles in the Top 40. The Mavericks also placed three albums in the Top 10, including 1994’s Platinum-selling What A Crying Shame.

His most recent solo album is the countryish-Latin soul-leaning Lucky One.

A Miami-born-and-raised Cuban-American singer — originally making his mark in the county music world, and then slipping into the Latin and jazz arenas via rock & roll — Raul Malo has proven to be an ever-expanding musical talent.

I don’t often comment on “current” albums here at DeeJay’s Music Memories, but this is a great cd, and I love the song. And if you are lucky in love, then, I think you will enjoy it too.
