Early Group Vocals - For The Girls!

A salient aspect of the beginning of the Rock amp; Roll era was that this new music was designed for young people and oftentimes was created by young people themselves. Long before we became men and women, we were all boys and girls.
 
this week Joel Najman's My Place program returns to those early years for an hour of group vocal recordings all about - not women - but girls. Memorable recordings by Frankie Lymon,The Five Satins, The Miracles and others are among the selections featured.
