I was introduced to Melanie Harrold's Music by a college girlfriend, Alison Peters (As was)I loved the music (and Alison too, at the time).I vividly remember the "Valentino" song. Much later, (1982/3?)I saw her gig at the Kings Head theatre in Islington. Later still I waas booked to apppear in a Bob Eaton/Sayan Kent penned show, "Country" @ the Mercury Theatre, Colchester, and was surprised and delighted to find Melanie in the cast. A lovely gracious lady. She used to run our vocal warm-ups, and I know she worked on a book about how singers use and can improve their vocal technique.
