Wow! I haven’t heard of her in years. I was crazy about her.

I was lucky enough to see her live in ‘69. What a show!

Oh, no. She was probably my favorite over all. She didn’t really make all that many albums - she mostly starred in movies. Perhaps that affected her legend. But some of the older gays remember her.

It’s about time someone mentioned Grace Slick!

How about Jacqui McShee? I saw her once with John Renbourn in an acoustic concert in a small theatre and her voice was transcendent.

And I am really surprised no one has mentioned Annie Haslam yet.

To another post, I love Dionne Warwick’s voice, it is so soft, something.

To Judith Durham, the brother of Dusty Springfield wrote some of the Seekers’ songs like Georgy Girl. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgy_Girl_%28song%29 (He wrote “I’ll never find another you” as well)

What some people may not know is that he and Dusty sang for the Springfields, so the Springfields were almost like an early incarnation of the Seekers, similar at least, but Dusty split and of course, she had a big effect on the music pop scene.

But I love the way Dusty Springfield sang for the original group, the Springfields;

Anyway, just my view.
