RIP Beaky

Only one of them left now

I met Beaky in 2009 at his club The Gig in Benavista in Spain where my brother-in-law was living. He was a great host, chatted to everyone and sang “With A Girl Like You” (The Troggs song, not the Rutles) for me.

RIP Beaky

She was a Swansea legend, would arrive at her local pub and sing all evening with the locals.

She'll be especially mourned in South Wales.

That gives an impression of the woman as well as the singer.
Sad news.

My only experience of her in the flesh was at the Vetch when she was introduced pitchside at half time 30 odd years ago.  The reception was 'mixed' but she seemed to take it all in good humour.  I recall her miming (presumably) along to a few of her hits but I might be wrong...the 90s were a bit hazy at times.
