Saw her at the Odeon (formerly Regal cinema) in Holmeside, Sunderland along with Gene Pitney and a lot of Liverpool bands, e.g. Billy J. Kramer, Gerry and the Pacemakers., Undertakers, around 1963 or '64. Cilla specialized in nicking American hits from Dionne Warwick and recording them over here - Walk on by, Anyone who had a heart, etc. She wasn't in the same league as Warwick of course, but she'd get in quick and record them before the American version came out over here. Fair does to the lass, she did well out of it. R.I.P. Cilla.

I enjoyed the Billy Fury one and bought his first LP. But by the time of The Stones, I'd gone from Sunderland.
