Lynn

[Marcella Ross]

Some Girls – The Rolling Stones……………… (?) googled it but think thats maybe an album 😕

[Martin Pearson]

Some girls was originally a Temptations number I am sure but I think it was done by the rolling stones in the 70s

[Marcella Ross]

As you may have gathered, I was a "child of the 70’s". Loon pants, Lambrettas and Ford Anglias….Ooh, I remember it well!
