[Maybe there will be more photos in her book. There's one of her with Rod, but not of Mick or Peter]

Beryl performed and toured with The Beatles, was in a band with Rod Stewart and Mick Fleetwood, and dated Rolling Stone Keith Richards. So why did fame happen for Cilla and not Beryl?
She formed the band Shotgun Express with a young Rod Stewart and Fleetwood Mac founders Mick Fleetwood and Peter Green. She performed with Martha Reeves and the Vandellas and hung out with BBC DJs Jimmy Young and Pete Murray.
“Rod was always popular with the ladies and would flirt with them a bit,” says Beryl. “But it was different then – there were no groupies or screaming girls.
“It was so incredible in the sixties. It was such an exciting time, a time of change. It wasn’t long after the war, and there was still rationing when I was a kid. But all of a sudden there was this optimism and amazing music.
“Having a boyfriend was the last thing on my mind, but I did go on a couple of dates with Keith Richards. I met him at a gig at the Twisted Wheel Club in Manchester and we met up again in London. He was really sweet.”
Music fans from all over the world still visit the Cavern Club and Beryl also returns.
