Beware- 12 of the 18 tracks licensed from K-Tel Music, Ltd. They are likely to be re-recordings. This is not a collection of female vocal records. It is songs with girl's names in the titles.
No composer credits shown. "Help Me Rhonda" was not a Jan & Dean hit.

| | Sorry if I offend but the language I've used is the only effective method of conveying my utter disgust at the antics of record companies in doing what this one has done. The industry as a whole, would be far better off if companies like this suddenly went bankrupt.
Yes, Neil, you do offend with the language and there is no need for it. Please desist. |

| | Hey Monolith, in your reply to me, "....The wee buggers get everywhere".
:wink:" Another one snuck in with it! To be sure, To be sure, To be sure!" |

| | 55bluesman, try the search engine, it might reveal such an album. Over on 45Cat there's a forum page on record labels named for girls, Jamie label listed among them, but Jamie is generally a boy's name(short for James), e.g.: Jamie Redfern. |

| | For a start, Monolith, how the heck did you get the smiley icon in there? As to the question, Honey could be a girl's nickname, as in Anne "Honey" Lantry, drummer/vocalist with The Honeycombs("Have I The Right", a hit for them in 1964) but as an actual name, I don't rightly know. |

| | Neil, your line-up sounds good. If I remember right there must be a LP by Duane Eddy on JAMIE, which is compiled only of GIRL NAMES. |

Monolith 20th Jun 2015
| | How is Honeycomb a girl's name? :huh: |

| | 55bluesman, go to it! I just put a CD together of 60s Girl Groups comprising 18 tracks, complete with my own cover and label artwork. In it is featured Diana Ross & The Supremes; The Angels; The Chiffons; Martha Reeves & The Vandellas; The Marvelettes; The Toys; The Velvelettes; Paper Dolls(1 track each); The Cookies(4 tracks); The Crystals; The Dixie-Cups; The Shirelles(2 tracks each). It's the best way to go, put together YOUR OWN CD! Then you can absolutely guarantee the authenticity of its contents! |

| | Hi Boys, I´m with you grumbling about the practice of some black sheeps in the record industry. But the idea to compile a sampler with songs about girls is not a bad one. I think I make myself some CD´s with that kind of stuff (of course only original versions). |
|

|
Neil Forbes🍰 20th Jun 2015
| | Not altogether past history, RC, as there are CD labels(companies) out there doing the exact same thing... and it's a practice that needs to be STAMPED OUT...er, no pun intended. |

Neil Forbes🍰 18th Jun 2015
| | As a result of many of these tracks being K-Tel re-recordings(cheating!), now I've seen it here, I'll know to avoid this album "like the plague" if I see it anywhere here in Australia. I hold such companies that do this sort of thing in utter and complete contempt. To ANY record company that sees this: Give us the AUTHENTIC versions or GET THE F*** OUT OF THE MARKETPLACE!!! |
