Cilla Black was the only important British female singer to emerge from the "Mersey Sound" explosion of the early 1960s. The archetypal girl-next-door, her speciality was powerhouse Continental ballads, with which she was unrivalled. "The Barefoot Princess From Dagenham," Sandie Shaw was one of the decade's most alluring images. She topped the British charts three times and romped to victory in the Eurovision Song Contest at a time when the songs were worth listening to. Lulu was the wee Scottish lassie with the voice which could demolish a skyscraper. Hers was a bigger struggle than most, from Glasgow tenement block to superstardom. She starred in one good movie, was the only Brit Girl to top the US charts, married a Bee Gee, and also won Eurovision. Like Sandie, following a slump in her career she briefly returned to chart glory, singing with the boy band, Take That. Also in this series: Brit Girls Of The Sixties Volume One: Dusty Springfield & Helen Shapiro; Volume Two: Marianne Faithfull & Kathy Kirby.

The creator of the unique style known as "blue-eyed soul," Dusty Springfield was instrumental in introducing Motown to Britain, and for several years reigned supreme on both sides of the Atlantic. Her voice--flutelike, smoky and sensual, often in the space of the same song--was similarly unique. Two decades after her passing she remains a show business legend--yet she also remains an enigma, a completely self-fabricated, difficult, yet strangely vulnerable woman who allowed few into her complex, personal world where at times there was little difference between reality and make believe. David Bret is one of Britain's leading celebrity biographers. In this the first of his "Brit Girls" series, which also includes the story of teen sensation Helen Shapiro, he tells the story of the Dusty he adored with honesty and compassion. David Bret's previous best-selling books include acclaimed biographies of Edith Piaf, Marlene Dietrich, Morrissey, Mario Lanza, and Maria Callas.

The daughter of a British wartime spy and an Austro-Hungarian baroness, Marianne Faithfull epitomised the perfect English rose immaculate bone structure, long blonde hair, angelic features and a cut-glass accent. An icon of the Sixties, she is remembered less for the beautiful songs she performed back then than she is for infiltrating the Rolling Stones' court and becoming consort to the Prince of Pop himself, Mick Jagger. Her subsequent fall from grace made world headlines, yet in the face of the harshest adversity she dragged herself out of the mire to become one of the most respected, adored, and profoundly talented entertainers to have ever graced the world stage. A living legend, Marianne Faithfull may well be the finest and most distinguished female singer in Britain today. KATHY KIRBY: Britain's glamorous answer to Marilyn Monroe-a phenomenally talented but tetchy individual for whom there was no such thing as a bad take. Contains full UK & European 60s vinyl discographies.

The creator of the unique style known as 'blue-eyed soul', Dusty Springfield was instrumental in introducing Motown to Britain, and for several years reigned supreme on both sides of the Atlantic. Her voice flute-like, smoky and sensual, frequently in the space of the same song was similarly unique. Over a decade after her death, she remains a show business legend yet she also remains an enigma, a completely self-fabricated, difficult yet strangely vulnerable woman who allowed few access to her complex, in turns exhuberant and neurotic world where at times there was little difference between reality and make-believe. HELEN SHAPIRO: The teenage sensation whose commercial career ended as the other Brit Girls were coming into their own, though she went on to be a fine, successful jazz-singer. Contains full 1960s UK and European vinyl discographies. Also in this series: Volume Two: Marianne Faithfull & Kathy Kirby Volume Three: Cilla Black, Sandie Shaw & Lulu
