Biography

Alma Cogan was Britain’s most successful female recording artist of the 1950’s. Born in London in 1932, her early recordings were mainly ballads, in the style of Anne Shelton. But by 1954, this was to all change. Her first major hit was “Bell Bottom Blues”, and she scored her only number one in Britain with “Dreamboat” in 1956. Novelty songs were extremely popular at the time, and Alma recorded a number of these, including “I Can’t Tell A Waltz From A Tango”, “Twenty Tiny Fingers” and “Never Do A Tango With An Eskimo”.
