From the Glasgow Herald. - The singer Dusty Springfield stayed at the Central Hotel on the night of March 26-27, 1964 after playing the Odeon in nearby Renfield Street with The Searchers and the American singer Bobby Vee. She had a long lie-in, including breakfast in bed (during which the other two acts, also at the hotel, had to fight their way through crowds of screaming fans), and emerged to talk to the press only at 1pm.
Dusty left the hotel by a ‘secret’ exit, disappointing a group of waiting fans, though a page-boy at the Central was at least able to get her autograph. Earlier, speaking to reporters from her bedside telephone, she said: “It has been great appearing in Glasgow. I wish every audience on the tour was as wonderful as they have been in this city.”
