Came across this nice tribute to the late Ruth Pearson. She's one of three of the original members who have died.

Not a "tat" amongst them.

Sometimes a tune gets into your head. Lately it has been this. I'm not at all a fan, but I bought a near-mint 7" copy on eBay for £2.99 for one of my jukeboxes. I doubt if it will stay in there long, but it will make a change for a few weeks. Good bass on it.

Doris Troy. co-writer.



All the rest are covers.

One of my two vinyl jukeboxes which I've filled with MoTown and similar 45s is unashamedly "60s girl group heavy."

For those interested in girl groups of all eras. There's a thread that runs to 19 pages, on a music and audio devoted message board, that can be found here.

Korean girl group of ten years ago, no longer recording.

Typical highly choreographed "KPop" production.

I quite liked it when I heard it the other day, as it's quite catchy.


As is the "middle eight" of some songs, this tune is mostly built round a repeated four chord progression.

If I were to busk it, but I'm not that bothered, I'd use AbM7, Fm6, Gm7, Cm7.

They were completely manufactured like many vocal groups, expanded to nine to keep up the teen interest.
Hugely popular in South Korea, able to maintain it without having to resort to, "singing in their knickers."

A record I'd like for one of my jukeboxes, but so would so many other people, but I have a copy as an mp3.

The Palisades, aka The Cookies.

Unsurprisingly, as were many good tunes in the sixties, it's one by Goffin/King.
