Popular British chanteuse during the 1950's. She had the looks, the charm and most evidently the voice. Recording for the Nixa and Pye labels, Marion also enjoyed the exposure she received on Granada TV's "Spot The Tune". Her star would have shown brighter had she not been forced to cover the American and UK hits of the day. 1958's "Love Me Forever" was Miss Ryan's biggest hit, however an earlier track "That's Happiness" is very nice and showcases that wonderful voice.
Marion Ryan perhaps gained more notoriety later in the mid 60's as being the mother of 16 year old twin pop stars Paul and Barry Ryan. The brothers chalked up 8 hits in an 18 month period, splitting as a duo in 1967. Paul began writing and producing, and Barry singing. The song "Eloise", fruit of their labor, was a big hit in 1968.
Sadly, Marion passed away in 1999.
