60s Girl groups and girlies- Cdthèque recommandée

Here are some of the best the 1960s girlies and girl groups had to offer.

Early, early rythm and blues (nothing to do with today's r'n'b; in the 50s-60s it meant rock'n'roll-like soul music), rock'n'roll, doo-wop.

The Best Of The Girl Groups Vol. 1

Very good overview of the hits of the time. Got The Shangri-Las, The Shirelles, The Chiffons, Cher, Betty Everett and so on. Try "Give him a great big kiss", "The leader of the pack", "One fine day", "I wanna love him so bad" and so on.
The Best Of The Girl Groups Vol. 2

Just as good: The Exciters, The Angels, Little Eva, Joanie Sommers, The Essex, The Cookies, Carole King...Try "The locomotion", "My boyfriend's back", "Johnny get angry"...
