Anneke Gronloh, Blue Diamonds @ Good Park Hotel

Images of Anneke Gronloh and The Blue Diamonds - Rudy and Riem De Wolff - at the Goodwood Park Hotel, Orchard Road, where the trio was staying. 

At that time, the three personalities were at the top of their form, flying in and out of Singapore from either Indonesia or Holland where they originated, to perform at the Badminton Hall, the Indoor Stadium at Kallang or at the hotel itself. 

They also had close connections with Singaporeans, finding the island a safe haven for their performances, recordings and family connections.

These superstars of Singapore 60's were at the hotel for their performance on the island. The photographs were taken in February and December 1962.
