One more item about Sally Stewart on the Elliot Lawrence Meadowbrook air 
check.
She was announced as a "Special Guest" and had apparently made one popular 
prior appearance.
She was a regular on the morning Danny O'Neill radio show and had also 
appeared with Vaughan Monroe, Sammy Kaye and Blue Barron Orks.
I don't like her singing much. Luv Roz Patton though.
