Yes it was definitely Sandie for me as well. Bacharach/David's Always Something There To Remind Me always has that time travelling effect on me....back to the exciting and slightly dangerous world that was the UK in 1964. What an explosion of wonderful songwriting there was back then. But this favourite of mine was from a couple of years later:

A few weeks ago the old girl was on The Jools Holland show still looking great. Long Live Love was the choice then. Shine on Sandie.  |

You are right, mark..we sadly didn't know Sandie in the States.

| This is probably kind of shallow, as we all age, some well and some not so well, but I couldn't put Linda down on this topic, cause of what she looks like now, kind of hefty to be nice. Take Grace Slick, who now looks like an old hag. |

In fairness though, Grace is Linda's senior by seven years. The recent interviews that are available for viewing show her to be even more interesting to listen to than she was during the Airplane's heyday...and I think she looks great:

People in the U.S. may not know her but Billie Davis was big in Britain in the mid 60's. Could have been a big star, had the looks and the voice, but rather sidetracked by being in a car crash with the Shadows Jet Harris which injured both of them physically and career-wise in the eyes of the press as Jet Harris was married. She had a couple of other songs in the charts and always chose good writers/producers, but people seemed to remember the scandal rather than the songs. She did some gigs with Harris in the last few years of his life. A few songs on youtube.
OR how about Sylvie Vartan or Francoise Hardy, both French and may not be well known in the U.S. Again, see youtube.
