So Doc are you saying that the Everly's chart reign was already
over before the Brit. Invasion started? One thing you can't
deny is that their biggest post-Beatles record "Gone, Gone,
Gone" sounded like it was influenced by what was happening
across the pond. BTW my favorite song by the Everlys is the
post invasion "Bowling Green".

I just received a copy of Back to the Girl Zone on Marginal
Records.
What a good collection of obscure girl group Spector sounds. I
particularly like Shirley Matthews' "Big Town Boy" and a
Goffin-King composition by the Three Bells called "Softly in
the Night".
The Wall of Sound is still standing...at least here in Memphis!

Peppermint" or early Neil Diamond. >>
or the osmond brothers' [as they were billed pre-"one bad apple
" & such] classic one-two punch of "flower music" and "i can't
stop"...oh, to have that in my library again...

<< Garfield/Botkin did some stuff for Spector, and I suppose
that's why "I Still Love Him" is included on Touch the Wall of
Sound series, specifically Vol. 2. What's the B-side sound
like, RG?

I haven't played this single in 20 or more years so I couldn't
tell you. I'll give it a listen tonight.
Another Spectorish single was Bobby Darin's "We Didn't Ask To
Be Brought Here."

That song reminds me a lot of the direction that Paul Revere &
The Raiders took on songs like "Cinderella Sunshine", "Mr. Sun,
Mr. Moon" and "Don't Take It So Hard".
