Crumb Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Thanks very much for that mate Popcorn couldn't originally remember who Betty Boo was, but got back in touch with Betty Winston not long before he died, I think she cooked him his last Xmas dinner.

KevH Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 Didn't she appear over here ? Also recorded one of the best NS tunes ever.Fact.
Steve L Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 Harry, Betty performed at the Northampton weekender in 2006 along with Pat & Diane Lewis. They sang together as the Adorables and then she did "Say It Isnt So" on her own! Apparently it was the first time she had performed the song since she recorded it as a 16 year old, at first she was a little scared I think and struggled a bit but after about 20 seconds the crowd stared singing and that lifted her. Just been looking for a photo to post up but the only one I've got of her is a bit dark and you cant see her very well. I've got nice pics of me with Pat & Diane cos they came into the bar area after the show but Betty didnt, I think she might have been overwhelmed by it all. Shame I would have loved to have a photo with her

Wilxy Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 As already stated, great story, and some nice references, of particular interest to a "mature student of Detroit musical history" Thanx wilxy
