Short story:

Former hat-check girl at The Cavern Club, Liverpool, England, UK, Europe, Cilla Black releases her first single, a song by John Lennon and Paul McCartney of The Beatles', called Love Of The Loved. She also makes her debut appearance on popular tv show Ready, Steady, Go!.

Full article:

Cilla Black : Paul McCartney wrote it and I'd heard The Beatles do it many times at The Cavern. I wanted to do a group arrangement and I was ever so disappointed when I got to the studio and there was brass and everything. Les Reed did the arrangement. He was playing piano and Peter Lee Stirling was on lead guitar. I thought it was very jazzy and I didn't think it would be a hit.

Cilla Black : I didn't like London at all. It didn't seem to have houses like Liverpool. Later, I got friendly with Cathy cGowan, the presenter of Ready, Steady, Go! and it wasn't until I went to her house in Streatham that I realised that London did have all that. But at first, no, I didn't like it.
