PART TWO: INTERVIEW WITH ANNISETTE KOPPEL

What had you been singing before you joined Savage Rose in the late 1960s?

I started [at] seven years old traveling around with small amusement parks, traveling around the country in the summertime.

As a 12-year-old I combined my singing with another girl playing the piano, and we found some songs we liked at the time—it was Italian songs and small hits from all around Europe, in Danish of course.  We couldn't continue traveling around, and after a while some other guys that were hearing my song wanted me to sing in their band.  It was a rock and roll band with saxophones and drums, and for me it was a very big thing to sing in a band like that, with all instruments.  After a time, there was another band asking me if I would like to sing with them.

They were like Beatles band -- we dressed out like Beatles and played with electric instruments, electric guitars and bass.
