Singer Peabo Bryson died on June 2, 2026 at age seventy five. Peabo Bryson had several hits throughout the 80s and 90s. One of his biggest hits was “A Whole New World” with Regina Belle from the Disney movie “Aladdin”.
“A Whole New World” was my class prom theme. I always thought that was a very clever and well suited theme for a graduating class. The frame with the awkward photo at the top of this post is a souvenir from prom. We also got a rosebud glass. I fear mine got broken long ago.
Bryson also sang the theme to “Beauty and the Beast” and the theme song to the soap opera “One Life to Live”. Peabo Bryson was power ballad singing machine in his day.
