Clodagh Rodgers signed for Decca records in 1961, at the age of 14. She made a number of recordings with Decca, changing to Columbia in the mid 60's, but her career took off only after she signed to RCA. After a slow start her recording of the Kenny Young song "Come Back & Shake Me" shot up the charts, giving her a million selling gold disc and launching her into stardom in 1969. She followed this with another top 4 hit "Goodnight Midnight," plus "Biljo," which resulted in her being the best selling female singles artist of that year.
