Description
Spanning the years 1962 to 1968, this is the tenth and final volume in our long-running compilation series of girl group treasures from the USA. The tracks were recorded in Philadelphia, New York, Los Angeles, Nashville and Cincinnati. Many are making their first appearance on CD, including ‘Top Twenty’ by the Delicates, previously unissued in any format.

Highlights include ‘Hot Spot’ by Philly girl group the Bronzettes, a dancefloor-friendly gem produced by Chubby Checker; ‘Nothing Can Go Wrong’ by Los Angeles’ the Bea’s, a jangly nugget that sounds like the Bangles many years ahead of their time; and ‘Big House’, a Spector-style opus by the Carolines of New York.

The collection comes with a picture-packed 24-page booklet featuring in-depth notes by Ace’s in-house girl group buff Mick Patrick. Although this is the final volume in the series, you can be certain Ace will continue releasing girl group compilations in some shape or form for more years to come, for wherever Mick is, needless to say, that’s where the girls are, too.

I have most of the albums in this series, and they are all excellent.
I'm sure this one will be as well. Ace has done a wonderful job here.
