Syd Straw

Her father was actor Jack Straw (of The Pajama Game)
Not the British politician
And singing backup vocals for Pat Benatar
Was her first job as a musician
And before her debut – Surprise! –
She’d been a Golden Palomino
And I wore both those LPs out
When we both were Angelenos
A wonderful singer, a beautiful sight
There will be no straw ban here tonight –
Greet with applause
Syd Straw
