I love this guest appearance by Linda Lewis during Terry Reid's performance at the second Glastonbury festival in 1971.
Terry Reid was the original choice as vocalist for a band being formed by Jimmy Page called The New Yardbirds (eventually known as Led Zeppelin). Due to other commitments Reid turned down the job and suggested a young vocalist called Robert Plant.
Anyway back to Linda Lewis. She was/is a recording artist in her own right, her most famous hits being Rockadoodledoo and Its in His Kiss.
She ambles onto the stage here at 6.29. Great afro too.

Yes because she's not credited as the performing artist, only the Pet Shop Boys were.

And William Reid pulled her too, securing the all-time “punching above your weight” crown.

Rasa Davies.
How many iconic Kinks songs owe her vocals to a large part of their sound and success.

Valerie Etienne is just brilliant on the wonderful Prince of Peace by Galliano.

Rosemary Butler gets credited here but not on the album it is taken from. One of the great backing female singers on so many West Coast artists songs

IMO one of The Small Faces greatest songs with the lovely P.P.Arnold on backing vocals.
