Likes Skirts At Knee Level
The petite, blonde, Glasgow-born singer, Sally Logan, the only female vocalist with the Andy Stewart show, likes the current fashion for short skirts. Because she is so tiny she can wear them successfully.
But Miss Logan wears her skirts about mid-knee because she is not singing exclusively for the mod set and does not wish to create a mod image of herself.
Her repertoire includes songs from musical shows, pop numbers, ballads, Scottish and Irish songs.
Miss Logan has appeared several times with the show in its summer seasons in Glasgow and Aberdeen and its tour of America and Canada last year. Before the present tour, she appeared in a London pantomime, and recently played the lead in “Carnival” in the West End. Most of her career has centred around Glasgow. “London is definitely the best place for work and I think I shall be doing more work from there in the future,” she said. On her return to Scotland, Miss Logan will appear in cabarets but she would like to do another musical. The theatre is her first love and so
far she has not thought about film work. Although Miss Logan is the only woman to appear on stage, she is not completely outnumbered by the men. She has the company of the band’s pianist, Miss Pam Brough. “I am used to being outnumbered by the men, but I am glad there is another woman with the show. It makes such a difference to have Pam to talk things over with and we like to shop together,” she said. Miss Logan was a 13-year-old schoolgirl when she first appeared on a stage. Her father had a concert party which appeared in theatres in parks during the summers. “I had a yearning to know if I could do anything so my father let me try. I enjoyed singing and the experience was really fun,” she said.
