      @@Landatj No problem mate. It happens a lot with me when you find out people who you haven't heard of in a long time have already passed. I didn't find out Rick Danko (from the Band) had died until I bought 'The Last Waltz' dvd in DVD in 2000 (he died in 1998?). It's sad but all you can do is celebrate these special artists and Millie was special. 100 years from now people will still be dancing to and singing to 'My Boy Lollipop', so she will live on in song and in spirit.

      Chris is right its not Rod Stewart but he might be wrong with Peter Hogman. I did some poking around after I saw the BBC article (because they also note the Stewart connection ) that she had passed..... "Contrary to legend, the harmonica player was not Rod Stewart but Jimmy Powell of The Five Dimensions (previously a member of The Rockin' Berries). Powell personally asserts that it was he, not fellow Five Dimensions member Pete Hogman, who played this solo, contrary to many citations. ~SOURCES: Richie Unterberger & Bruce Eder, All Music Guide and Wikipedia

      First single record I ever bought 1964 & later that year "Sweet William". Still have both records. Thank you, Millie. RIP

      So sad! I was seven when this came out and this song is deeply imprinted into my soul. Also the first ska I had ever heard! Wonderful.
