Thank you so much for this lovely clip…..I can’t begin to think what Shirley thought of those ignorant, Ladies ? in the audience! Today we say they are ( up themselves ) I bet as time went by that the ladies were only too pleased to tell people that they saw Shirley in the 70s.

her performance changes over the years but the magic is ever present. Those days lighting was minimal and sound mixing was not advanced like today but her talent and artistry at still only 33 is world class. Lucky audiences able to see her so close before the fashion for arenas started.

Another fantastic clip Pieter, thank you. Yes the audience to quote Noel Coward behaved “like stuffed cods heads”! No wonder Shirley found it demoralising especially when she so gives it her all! Wonderful classic footage and yes I was there at the dress auction and remember this outfit. Annie

Wonderful and thank you. Does anyone else think the blue beads were added to this catsuit for her 60th birthday concert, also will Dame Shirley be celebrating the 60 year anniversary from the 1st Jan 2013 or from her first signed contract date? (Dec)

You have to laugh at some of those women in the audience – so filled with their own self importance! If they had any class whatsoever they would have applauded even if they didn’t like it. Proves that no amount of money buys class. Still, DSB had the last laugh when she moved into the neighbourhood lol! Loved hearing her sing I’ll Never Fall In Love Again.
