She told me that she was very good friends with the Rolling Stone’s and she said all the press about them being bad boys was a bunch of garbage.

      Anne Moore Yes, Petula and Dusty were very much a part. Silver Threads, and Golden needles, was a Song by the Springfields that highlighted Dusty's talent, before she went solo. They recorded it before Linda Ronstadt.
      As for Cilla, and Shirley; they were in my home. But my home had much eclectic, music . Don't forget all those though, in American households that moved here from England after the Second World War. My Mother in Law was one. I also knew many people that were in New England younger and older, that were from England until I moved away, mid eighties.

      Don't forget this, and a lot of Petula's songs, are credited to Tony Hatch/Jackie Trent. Jackie could write meaningful lyrics with a surprising poetic sensibility for a pop song. As she was also a noted singer (with a #1 hit in the UK in 1965, displacing The Beatles 'Ticket to Ride') she had a feeling for which lyrics could work in a song, especially by a female artist.

    I'm looking for a Petula Clark performance from a spring 1965 Ed Sullivan Show. She and the Beach Boys, two of my big favorites, were supposed to be on that night. Shortly before the show came on, a thunderstorm started brewing. My mother shut off the window air conditioners as a precaution and told us that if the storm got any worse, we would have to turn off the TV. Ed Sullivan came on and said that the Beach Boys had to cancel due to an illness of group member Brian Wilson. Well, there was still Petula Clark to look forward to. But before she came on, the storm intensified, and my mother turned off the TV.
