Shirley Bassey - MUSIC / I Was Here (Shirley's 70th Anniversary in Music)

2020 - Dame Shirley Bassey celebrated 70 years in the business in 2020 with her latest album, 'I Owe It All To You'. Shirley started singing as a young teenager back in 1950. She performed at Men's clubs at the Docs of Tiger Bay Wales, but only on Sunday's. This was the only day the wives could attend. Shirley received her first professional contract to join musical reviews only three years later in 1953. She started as a chorus girl, but as soon as the producers discovered Shirley could sing, she was brought up front. Shortly after this Shirley gave up her dancing shoes. In 1956, Shirley received her first recording contract, and within the next two years she would receive her first number one single. This clip includes two wonderful songs that say everything about this lady and her music, and I have included a multitude of pictures covering both her personal life and her amazing career in show business. In 2000 Dame Shirley was inducted into the Guinness Book of World records for being the largest selling female artist from the United Kingdom. With this album, Dame Shirley also must be congratulated on being the only singer/artist who has received at least one top 40 hit over 7 (SEVEN) consecutive decades! Congratulations Dame Shirley on your wonderful career and accomplishments!

Songs Included:
Music (John Miles)
I Was Here (Diane Warren)
