MILLI MUNRO

"It's quite a thought - Shirley Bassey and Frank Sinatra topping the same bill. The Tiger Bay Belter versus Ol' Blue Eyes.

To my knowledge no such encounter ever took place but had it done so the noise of clashing egos would have been deafening. However, this unusual tribute did take place and what an enjoyable event it turned out to be.

James Chadwick handled all the Sinatra classics very convincingly while Milli Munro did full justice to the dramatic Shirley Bassey repertoire with backing for both singers provided by the Swing Sextet."
