Shirley Alston (Of The Shirelles)

[Roburt]

I know lots on here love the music of the Shirelles and of ex group member Shirley Alston's later recordings.

.... came across these recent-ish bits on here when surfing the net .....

... good to see her looking so well just a few months back (she's over 70 years of age -- see photo below) ...

The Shirelles song that is just about her fave old tune is a 1961 Scepter 45 B side.....

...... the Shirelles "Ž— What A Sweet Thing That Was / A Thing Of The Past
