Clare Torrey - Heaven In The Sky - ONLY GOOD SONG

So we’ll start the day and the weekend with this really odd curio from Only Good Song. This is one of those artists that did a perfectly good job as backing singer and in commercial work, advertising and so on but didn’t make it on their own merits for some reason. There but for fortune go Kiki Dee and the like all the one hit wonders and back up singers Tin Pan Alley was full of them with really very good voices but as Only Good Song suggests here,  they made it no further:

Clare H. Torry is a British singer, well-known for improvising and performing the wordless vocals on the song "The Great Gig in the Sky" on Pink Floyd's 1973 album The Dark Side of the Moon.
