She was gorgeous and talented. 'Broken English' was a great album. By the time that came out, drugs and cigarettes had changed her voice totally. She was discovered by Andrew Loog Oldham - the Stones' first manager - and he required Jagger and Richards to write her first hit song "As Tears Go By". I once tackled ALO in a game of football (what y'all call soccer) and prevented him from scoring.

Agreed on 'Broken English'. Had good taste in Mars products too. Allegedly.
