Winifred Atwell - "Let's Have Another Party"

 

Here's something depressing: Number 1 Album - "Nothing! The album chart did not begin until the end of July 1956." Oh dear...

 

I share my birthday with Keith Richards (Rolling Stones), Elliot Easton (The Cars) and (aaaiiieee!) Christina Aguilera. Well, at least she's cute. Keith Richards looked dissipated even in the 1960s and he hasn't improved since.

 

Who the hell is Winifred Atwell? :huh2:

The breadth of knowledge on boards like this consistently amazes me. Thanks, Vince!

 

BTW, I note you're already in the New Year. We're a bit less than three hours from it as I type this here in the U.S. Eastern Time Zone.

 

Happy New Year!

At the moment I don't have time to study... I'm too busy upgrading my wardrobe with mirrors and glitters...

 

That should be interesting. Leather motorcycle jacket covered in sequins. Are you going to upholster your LeMans seat in Taffeta? :lol:
