Subject: THE DAUGHTERS OF EVE
Hi,
Do we have among our membership an expert on garage & frat bands from
the Windy City area? I urgently need information about Chicago all-girl
outfit THE DAUGHTERS OF EVE, the female gender's answer to the Shadows
Of Knight. I need photos, personnel information and the group's singles
on Destination and USA 1779. Can anyone recommend a Chicago newspaper in
which I can advertise for information? Or suggest a good research site?
Thanking you,
MICK PATRICK

Dunno whether this helps but the 45 on Chess has the same
backing track as a Ral Donner 45......

When being 'forced' to go shopping uptown with the wife, Sue,
(usually hunting down Dean Martin memorabilia!) I often manage
to sneak off to some of the larger record emporiums.
These trips, more and more, involve flicking through piles and
piles of Spectropop members' handiwork! - Mark Wirtz, Joey Stec,
Kim Cooper, John Clemente, Kingsley Abbott, Richard Williams,
Ian Chapman, Don Charles, Stephen McParland, Kieron Tyler,
Phil Chapman, Mick Patrick and I'm sure many more I've missed.
Everywhere you look "Oh.. another Spectropper"!
For a short while it looked like the world might be taken over
by folk known as Rashkow (I'm still not sure how to pronounce
it) - Happily, this never happened. But it sure looks like the
world of quality 60's pop is being taken over by Spectropoppers!
Maybe we should initiate our own secret handshake and strange
customs. Perhaps some already have!
The reason I'm writing is that most of these purchases have been
made using an old fogeys' tradition, instinct: "That looks, tastes,
smells good, I'll buy it!" - Lookie, Touchey, Tastey, Sniffy??
Now, I'm getting back into: "..this three year old shirt is fine",
"..a haircut every six months will do" (whether I need it or not),
"Sue, could you darn me socks again please?", "..didn't we go out
last month?" etc, etc - economy measures to support buying old,
dusty, scratched 45's from places like deepest darkest Kansas.
These, I'm now buying on the web without a thought.
BUT...new stuff?? .....still can't bring myself to do it!
Should I? I know some have been discussed already, but should I
buy The Teardrops CD? I adore the songs. I have Diane Renay's
"Pop Princess", who seems as lovely as when first heard on
"Unbelievable Guy", am I missing out? What other treasures are
eluding me? Any other recent reissues, not available in HMV or
Tower, that I should be buying?
Your help and advice eagerly sought!
Martin

Hi,
Well, the Darlettes mystery isn't totally solved. There are
more groups involved than the Diane Christian-led gang that
waxed for Dunes and the Mira label outfit that became the Sweet
Things.
For example, does anyone out there know anything about the
Darlettes that released "To Reconcile" b/w "Love Will Make You
Cry" on Taffi 100?
And what about "He's Gonna Get It" b/w "Till I Fell In Love"
by the Dar-Letts on Shell 101 in 1964.
I've not seen or heard these two discs but have researched the
song titles at BMI and ASCAP and none of them appear to have
been composed by anyone associated with the Darlettes on Dunes
or Mira.
