An early Phil Spector production (Philles Records) that went to #8 on pop and was played on our r&b station. This group was reportedly really the Blossoms. For those too young to "get it", girls used to wear bobby socks. *** I was arecord collector in the 50s and 60s, mostly R&B, doowop, and Motown. My first two purchased records were 78s in '56...Peggy Sue and Blue Suede Shoes (still got em). I listened mostly to KDIA in San Francisco/Oakland back in the day. If I liked a new song, I bought it. Hence you may discover some great songs as we go on this journey. Remember, just because it wasn't a hit doesn't mean it wasn't a great song.. + Informações
