Looking for info on Julie Grant

Hi, back in the 70's I worked with a singer named Julie Grant, who was originally from England. She had some hits there in the early/mid '60s. I have read all I can find on the internet and her CD liner notes. I'm looking for more 'local' info from those UK folks that might remember her. I know that she turned down recording 'Downtown', a move that surely cost her a chance at international stardom. Can anyone offer any more info? Thanks. Tom

Ton, I searched Google on "julie grant british singer" and these hits were at the top:

http://www.readysteadygirls.eu/#/julie-grant/4521592373
Not sure if that's her ... or if those help!

(the latter suggests another route to search ...)

Thanks guys. The last time few times I've done searches, there was very little info that I found. These links were very informative in confirming and clarifying things that Julie told me, as well as providing some new data. Thanks. Tom

Good find.... Thanks again, Gary. Here are a couple of shots of Julie (and friends) from the mid-70's. These have an un-altered Rick 4001 in use.
