Bought a second-hand Cleo Laine album the other day. It had a signed by her photograph attached to it. Not a print - a real photograph. To say I nearly lost my shit is an understatement 🀣

She was such an icon ❀️

I checked her signature online to see if it was really hers, and it is 😍

I have no idea who Jo is, but he or she can rest assured that this will be treasured for the rest of my life!
