  • Sandra Ann Goodrich, más conocida como Sandie Shaw (26 de febrero de 1947, Londres, Reino Unido) es la cantante inglesa más exitosa de la década de 1960, popular por cantar descalza en la mayoría de sus actuaciones. En 1967 ganó el Festival de la Canción de Eurovisión con el tema Puppet on a string, uno de los mayores éxitos de la historia del certamen, que fue número 1 en Reino Unido y número 2 durante tres semanas en United World Chart. Comenzó su carrera musical a la edad de 17 años.
  • Sandie Shaw made little impact in the United States, compared to many other British acts of the mid-1960s, but three of her 1966 singles made brief appearances in the KMEN British Top Ten, compiled by Peel (or John Ravencroft, as he was then known) for his own show on the station and printed in the Kmentertainer newspaper (where her name is misspelled as "Sandy Shaw"). The most successful of these was "Nothing Comes Easy", which spent four weeks in the station's British Top Ten in June and July.
  • Sandie Shaw is an English singer. She launched her career in the early 1960s and came to fame with the song "There's Always Something There to Remind Me", which peaked at #1 on the UK charts. Three years later, she represented the United Kingdom on the Eurovision stage with the song Puppet on a String, winning the Contest with 47 points and giving the nation its first of five wins, which would span the next three decades. She performed without shoes on because she couldn't see the stage all that well, and so she needed to feel where the edge was.

The most successful of these was "Nothing Comes Easy", which spent four weeks in the station's British Top Ten in June and July. Peel played Sandie Shaw's records while he was working for Radio London, as part of the playlist of the station's daytime shows, but not on his Perfumed Garden, In 1967 she seemed to be moving closer to the show business mainstream and was therefore not a hippy favourite - despite her famous habit of performing live in bare feet. He disliked her Eurovision winner, "Puppet On A String", stating on-air when it had just been released that it was "dismal and won't stand much chance in San Remo." In 1969 Shaw recorded (and produced) Reviewing The Situation, an LP in more contemporary style, with versions of songs by artists Peel favoured, including the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones, Donovan and Dr. John. It was not a commercial success and the DJ seems to have ignored it. She left the music business shortly afterwards.. However, in the 1980's, when she began recording again and collaborated with Morrissey and Johnny Marr, Peel started playing her new material on his BBC Radio One shows and even invited her to do a session, which she did in 1988. It included covers of material by the Waterboys and Jesus And Mary Chain.
