Whilst still a teenager, I attended a concert by her at Woolwich Odeon. At that time it was a rough town, where the cinema clientele was prone to rip up the seats.

She held them all, silent & spellbound for the entire show. No mean feat for one girl and a B3. This links to the 'Oh Boy' site, a lot of information about the late '50s T.V. show & its performers.

Feline 1 is a Musician in the South of England. His site has information, some useful, & examples of work etc. Plus an opportunity to download music files.
