Petula Clark- liked her alot. Nice tunes. You could put her down on my list of favorite female vocalists.
I remember her 1st big hit was a tune called Downtown. Aside from having a very good voice she also always struck me as a very classy lady. Hard to believe she's 82. And remember these two from "The adventures of Superman". Jack Larson & Noel Neil. AKA Jimmy Olsen & Lois Lane. http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl...sch&ei=Sv5UVPC2MMXGsQTKv4GYDQ&ved=0CBkQsCUoBw
Speaking of Nov, always makes me the of the battle of la Drang, Nov 14-18, 1965. I believe Lt. General Half Moore is still alive at 92. And so is Col. Bruce Crandall (Snakeshit from the movie) at 81. Had to look up Crandall, so his Distinguished Service Cross was upgraded to Medal of Honor by Bush W. He's also a Seahawk fan and raised the 12th man flag last year when they played the Vikings. Just had me thinking, we commemorate actors yet we forget who the real hero's are.
