Sandie Shaw is an English pop singer, who was one of the most successful British female singers of the 1960s. In 1967 she was the first UK act to win the Eurovision Song Contest. She has been described as "the barefoot pop princess of the 1960s". Sandra Goodrich was born and brought up in Dagenham, London, England. On leaving school, she worked at the nearby Ford factory, and did some part-time modelling, before coming second as a singer in a local talent contest. As a prize, she appeared at a charity concert in London, where her potential was spotted by singer Adam Faith. He introduced her to his manager, Eve Taylor, who won her a contract with Pye Records in 1964 and gave her the stage name of "Sandie Shaw". For any Sandie fan, this 2-cd set is the best from the many compilations that have been released over the years. From her very first single 'As long as you're happy baby' (which incidently wasn't a hit) through to her biggest hit 'Puppet on a string'. The set also includes the other four songs from which BBC viewers chose Britain's Eurovision entry. Sandie's first two LP's, 'Sandie' and 'Me' are also included. (AC)
