Mmmmm-Moving to the "M's"

This is one i skip past in by box...

Born in 1936 (real name: Joan Pipkins King), and - having lived in San Francisco and New York - came to London in 1961 or so. Married Pete King (Ronnie Scott's partner) in 1962 but they separated quite quickly. In 1963 she took over from Cleo Laine in Johnny Dankworth's band, but was apparently hot-headed and tricky to work with.
