"Hearts For Sale" is the fifth and latest in our series of
12-inch vinyl albums spotlighting the US girl group
sound of the 1960s. The collection opens with 'Street
Dance' by Bonnie Jean, a little-known must-have for
collectors of the genre, with Darlene Love and the
Blossoms clearly audible on background vocals.
Issued on Lew Bedell's Dor label, this exciting fauxlive deck in the style of Shirley Ellis' 'The Nitty Gritty'
was written by Guy Hemric and Jerry Styner, a hip team
known for supplying songs for the soundtracks of B
movies such as Muscle Beach Party and Thunder Alley.
The Hollywood-based Dor imprint is also the source of
'You Really Never Know Till It's Over' by the Vel-Vetts
(which shares a backing track with the Superbs' 'I Was
Born When You Kissed Me'), 'One Way Street' by the
Swans, a soulful update of the Teddy Bears' 'To Know
Him Is To Love Him' by the Darlings and - featuring
lead vocals by Sheilah Page, a former member of
groups such as the Bermudas, Becky & the Lollipops,
the Majorettes, Joanne & the Triangles and Beverly &
the Motor Scooters - 'He's Groovy' by the Front Page &
Her.
Other highlights include the Sweethearts' Supremesinfluenced 'No More Tears', the sophisticated slowie
'Lonely Girl' by the Lovettes (that's them on the front
sleeve), 'My Heart Tells Me So' by the Del-Phis (an early
incarnation of Martha & the Vandellas) and the FranCettes' terrific recording of 'Heart For Sale'. As with the
earlier volumes in the series, the album comes with a
fully-illustrated inner bag featuring a 2,500-word track
commentary by compiler Mick Patrick.
