Tracey Dey - Biography

  

Tracey Dey was from Yonkers, New York (just north of Manhattan). Hoping to become a singer in the early 1960s, producer Bob Crewe heard her demonstration tape and took her on. They started with "Jerry (I'm Your Sherry)", an answer to Sherry of the Four Seasons. Her songs were played in New York but she only had 3 small hits nationally charting between 50 and 100. She seemed to be the first person to record "Blue Turns To Grey" written by Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones.
Please please don't refer ta her as a "girl group", okaaaay?
In 1998 a CD was released in the EEC (EU) with 13 of her songs and 12 of Marcie Blane. This has been reissued more recently in 2009. There is also now a "Singles Collection" CD of hers.
Her real name is Nora Ferrari. After the late 1960s she left the music scene, reverted to her real name, plus probably married, and became lost to the public eye until recent years.
There is no video footage of her. She had been a regular guest on Clay Cole's local New York TV dance shows, but that footage was not saved. Who would have thought that film of local bozos and hipsters dancing for an hour should be historic. But it's the guest segments on the stage that are so desirable, which also included Linda Scott in this case.
