Hi there,

i have a favourite search on Ebay for Chris Calloway, as i'm trying to get hold of her single You're Something Else on Cub, and the search threw up a live album. The description states that she is (if it's the same singer)? actually the daughter of the famous jazz/scat singer Cab Calloway (the one that featured in the excellent Blues Brothers film).

Anyone know of any other singers with famous relations?

cheers,

Carl

Gloria Jones married to Marc Bolan, had son Rolan Bolan.

It was Gloria that was driving the Mini. Was arrested and then cleared.

Isn't Ortheia Barnes, JJ Barnes's sister?

Of course Chuck Jackson is Jesse Jackson's brother

But no relation to The Jackson 5

Also forgot to add Aretha and Erma Franklin.

The Chuck Jackson who is Ann Sexton's cousin is the guy who was in the Independents with Maurice jackson rather than the famed artist on Wand, Motown etc.
