Andrea Hilary Silverstein (aka Andee Silver) was born on 12 May 1951 in London, and is a singer and actress, best known for her acting role in the 1968 film 'The Libertine', although before that she had recorded a number of singles for HMV and Decca, with her 1964 debut 'Too Young To Go Steady' being perhaps her best-known recording. She also released the terrific 'You’re Just What I Was Looking For' in 1969, but inbetween those two stompers, a lot of her music was aimed at the foreign market. She married record producer David Pardo, who produced a number of singles for his brother Juan Pardo in the 60's, and so as he knew the Spanish music scene he tried to establish Silver in Spain and Italy by getting her to record a number of Spanish and Italian language singles, some of which were released in the UK on the Decca label. Because a lot of her songs were not specifically for the UK or American market, even though she did release the 'A Handful Of Silver' album in the UK in 1970, she is often unfairly overlooked when lists of the best UK girl singers of the 60's are compiled, but I hope that this collection shows that she deserves to be up there with the best of them.
