Tony Marshall (born 3 February 1938) is a German Schlager and opera singer.
Early life and education[]
Born in Baden-Baden as Herbert Anton Bloeth (a name which he had later changed to Herbert Anton Hilger), Marshall trained as an opera singer in Karlsruhe, graduating in 1965.
Career[]
However, rather than embarking on a career in the opera, in 1971, he had his first hit single, "Schöne Maid" (a year later also released in an English-language version, "Pretty Maid").[1][2][3][4] "Pretty Maid" peaked at number 16 in Australia in 1971.[5]
