EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to September 1953, a time when dreams were coming true for a young and talented girl. The image captures the radiant smile of Shirley Bassey, a mere 16 and a half years old at the time. Her dream became reality after she mesmerized the Old Comrades in Cardiff with her enchanting voice. Director and producer Cliff Gordon recognized her immense talent and wasted no time booking her for his show "Memories of Jolson" in Liverpool. This pivotal moment marked the beginning of Shirley Bassey's ascent to stardom, igniting hopes that she might follow in the footsteps of legendary singer Lena Horne. The portrait showcases Bassey's undeniable charm as she dons an elegant dress from the fashionable 1950s era. Her infectious smile reflects both joy and anticipation for what lies ahead on her journey to success. This print is not just an ordinary snapshot; it encapsulates a significant turning point in Shirley Bassey's life. It serves as a reminder that dreams can indeed come true with determination, talent, and opportunities like those presented by director Cliff Gordon. As we admire this timeless image captured by Mirrorpix from Memory Lane Prints, let us celebrate the remarkable journey of Shirley Bassey –a young girl whose star was on its way up– leaving behind an indelible mark on music history.
