Fact #153188

Paul Williams (son of Marion Williams) : As far as I know, she had worked with the Geraldo and Denny Boyce dance bands and was a regular singer at The Lyceum Ballroom in London. She also worked with Stephane Grappelli and Johnny Dankworth prior to Cleo Laine and was also resident singer at Ronnie Scott's with the house band. Musicians included bass players Ron Mathewson, Peter Ind and Dave Green, drummers Martin Drew and Brian Spring. The band also included Kenny Wheeler, trumpet, Louis Stewart, guitar, pianist Pat Smythe and possibly John Critchenson and John Taylor. If memory serves, Ronnie, Pete King and Don Weller sat in.
