LONDON (AP) — Paul McCartney says Cilla Black had “a fine distinctive voice and was always a bit of a laugh.” Ringo Starr says Black was “a good friend” and he will miss her. Black died Saturday at her home in southern Spain at the age of 72. Her spokesman says details of her death will be released after a coroner’s report is completed. Black was a protege’ of Beatles manager Brian Epstein. Black was a much more popular singer in Britain than in the U.S. Her version of “Alfie” is the one used in the original movie, and her song “You’re My World” was a hit in 1964.
