Linda Scott (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Linda Scott (born Linda Joy Sampson, June 1, 1945, Queens, New York) is a former pop singer who was active in the early to mid 1960s. Her biggest hit was the 1961 million-selling single, "I've Told Every Little Star." She went on to place twelve songs on the charts over the next four years, the last being "Who's Been Sleeping In My Bed," which was one of the first collaborations between the songwriting team of Hal David and Burt Bacharach. Born in Queens, New York, Scott was still in school in New Jersey (Teaneck High School Class of '63) when she auditioned for Arthur Godfrey's CBS radio show in 1959. After having won a place on the show, Scott and other young performers became regular guests on the show. During the show's run, the young singer came to the attention of Epic Records, and Scott made her recording debut (singing as Linda Sampson) with the single, "In-Between Teen."
