Apparently. Also: First British recording star to perform behind the Iron Curtain; last to perform in Iran. First British artist to win the Eurovision Song Contest. First British female artist to produce and own her masters and copyright. I think I shoud go out more (PS Thanks for answer JK. I think I have a certain empathy with that but not sure if I could have kept up both.)
JK2006	Zoo - I stayed at Cambridge because I loved Literature (still do) and enjoyed the lectures and learning... it has proved invaluable since then by giving me a grounding and a philosophy that enabled me not only to survive but to benefit from wrongful conviction. I also did not want to betray my Mum's sacrifices in sending me through Charterhouse at great expense. And MM - no, I don't think the manager was Stiggie (or Stigma as I fondly used to call him)... I don't think even Don could have held that weight! Mind you, Peter Grant was even fatter. Sadly we can never ask Don to tell us; I gather he has advanced Altzheimers.
Manager Man	Sandie Shaw - didn;t she at one time - maybe still - hold the record for the most chart hits by a female artist? Also - was the manager "held" over the balcony by Don Arden not Robert Stigwood (of Cream / Bee Gees / Saturday Night Fever fame?)
zooloo	Curious to know; why did you stay at college and not opt for music full-time? I'm thinking you didn't need to pass any exams for your future benefit as after your hit were already fairly well set-up financially. Anyway, it's remarkable you manged to juggle both.
JK2006	The chaos that is my life gets even more complicated - see Deep Throat as well as Grouper, Yahoo, YouTube, MySpace, Google and all the other online video sites...
