葉麗儀 Frances Yip (麗風唱片年代‧歐西歌曲)

1969年，身兼銀行秘書及輔警職務的Frances Yip 葉麗儀，參加了由HK-TVB為發掘新一代「歌演藝」人材而製作的「聲寶之夜」節目，憑着一曲"You Don't Have To Say You Love Me"於初賽中脫頴而出，其後再以一曲"Yesterday"於複賽中掄元。在本地樂壇中建立知名度後，她獲得麗風唱片公司 (Life Records)邀請灌錄唱片，歐西及國語歌曲並兼。當然，她走上其歌唱事業最高峰的時期，毫無疑問地就必定是在80年代，為EMI灌唱顧嘉煇的作品及香港無線電視(HK-TVB)劇集〈上海灘〉的同名主題曲。

以下是筆者擁有她在"麗風"年代的歐西歌曲唱片及承蒙「黑膠物語」部落格李傑俊先生提供(＊)的專集封套圖：
