Show Notes
Emma Van Loocks discovery of her late mother Ritas singing days at Glasgows Alhambra Theatre in the 1950s, where Rita performed in the Five Past Eight Show, has sparked nostalgia. Rita, born in Surrey, studied voice and piano at the Royal College of Music, and later toured with artists like Dusty Springfield and Ken Dodd. Her career peaked when she joined Frankie Vaughans tour, where she met her husband, guitarist Foggy Lyttle. After having three daughters, Rita focused on family but later reignited her passion for singing at Belfasts Europa Hotel.
