King Powerful Legacy Remembered (AP) - Ben E. King, the unfor- gettable lead singer for the Drift- ers and solo star whose plaintive baritone graced such pop and rhythm ‘n blues classics as “Stand by Me,” ‘’There Goes My Baby” and “Spanish Harlem,” is being re- membered after his death Thursday of natural causes at the age of 76. King was singing with the Five Crowns when they were hired in 1958 to become the new incarna- tion of the Drifters, a top act for Atlantic Records who had several doo-wop hits featuring tenor Clyde McPhatter. King co-wrote and sang lead on “There Goes My Baby,” and he and the Drifters followed with such fa- vorites as “Save the Last Dance for Me” and “This Magic Moment,” romantic and emotional ballads. He left the Drifters in the early ‘60s but quickly found success on his own.
