I remember "My Boy Lollipop" from 1964 and I'm sorry to hear that Millie Small has passed on. Thanks for the news Marv2 & Rest In Peace Millie.

You're most welcome Motown Eddie. I too remember the song on the radio a lot back then. I didn't know what Ska music was,but as I grew up I learned and I loved it and Millie Smalls deserves the credit for that. May she rest in peace.Quote:

Sorry to hear this news. That is the one and only song I ever heard by her.
This is sad. My Boy Lollipop is the most infectiously joyful song in pop music history. Her voice is so perfect and alive, I smile when I listen to it. Sorry to hear about her passing.
That's right, Marv.Quote:

She was a pretty and lively lady.
