Tribute Mondays: Little Eva

Eva Narcissus Boyd (June 29, 1943 – April 10, 2003) 


One of the many Artist from the Sixties that got ripped off and ended up living on Welfare; Little Eva, was branded as a Dance Craze Singer after her first hit, limiting her Catalog of songs. Without proper Promotion or potential hits a great voice was silenced; we thank you for your contribution Miss Boyd, you are Appreciated. Please take a listen here, hope it's a fun Monday: Keep your hands of my baby , Making with the Magilla , Let's Turkey Trot , Swinging on a star (with Big Dee Erwin) and The Locomotion
