The Shirelles

No depression. No transexuals. No medieval, ancient, dark wave or gloomy sounds. No graveyard soil with their albums. Just some of the most sumptuously arranged music and wonderfully lush vocals ever.

The Things I Want To Hear (Pretty Words)
 
What other girl groups do you like?
I've been playing nothing but the Shangri-La's lately.

The Marvelettes were brilliant, the best of the lot I reckon. So many great songs like "Please Mr. Postman" (later covered by the Beatles and the Carpenters - separately, obviously) and "Beechwood 45789".

Perfect pop.

Probably The Shirelles, The Royalettes, The Blossoms, Martha & the Vandellas and The Velvelettes. All some of my favourite music ever. I never took to the Shangri-Las. Not sure why. I find I can never quantify why I like some girl groups and dislike others. Although, I do quite like some of their songs ("Paradise", Long Live Our Love").
