The Brit GGs were so unfairly ignored in America. Discovering
minor GG records of the Swinging Sixties London sound is
such a joy, and of course hitmakers Pet, Cilla, and especially
Dusty are still great favorites.
Jackie Trent is well represented on the Here Come The Girls
series on Sequel. I know husband Tony Hatch produced her, and
she also wrote many songs for Pet Clark with him. She also
recorded under the name of Yvonne Burgess. Other than that I
know little of her. Are there Jackie Trent/Tony Hatch albums?
If so, are they any good? I adore her stuff on HCTG.
Comments please!

A friend of mine mentioned that he had heard about a Pixies
Three cd recently being released.
I would love to get it if it's available. Have any of you
Spectropops heard about it?
Thanks, John King

I collect Reparata. Their CD on Collectibles Col-CD-0527 is
called "Whenever A Teenager Cries." It has 19 cuts, the sound
quality is pretty poor.

I just discovered a couple of MP3's by the "Rag Dolls" (Bob
Crewe's girl group) on the newsgroups. Really great girl-pop!
Is there an import CD anywhere with "Dusty" or "Society Girl"
on it? The reason im asking is that the Mp3s were recorded from
worn 45's, and Id like to find better (and legit) copies of them.
Thanks

While someone smarter than I is verifying, could that person
also shed light on this rumor that I heard a dj say on the radio
a couple years ago: that Spector produced three or four tracks
for Elvis Presley? Sounds crazy, but the dj really seemed to be
in earnest about it.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A group of early rock 'n' roll greats
urged lawmakers on Capitol Hill Thursday to close what they say
is a loophole in U.S. copyright law that allows imitator groups
to tour under assumed identities, making money off songs
recorded by the original artists.
Performers said the fakes cost them concert contracts and
cheapen their work.
"There are five Drifters groups, six Platters groups, countless
fake Supremes, and impostor Sam and Dave just to name a few,"
said Rep. Dennis Kucinich, an Ohio Democrat, who held a news
conference before a hearing on the problem.
For years, the "Sam" in the Sam and Dave act was not the
original, Sam Moore, but instead a man named Sam Daniels. Moore,
tXXX@XXXXXXMan" creator, could do nothing to stop his estranged
partner, Dave Prater Jr. -- the original "Dave" who died in
1988 -- from hiring a "fake" partner.
"Never, ever, did they tell anyone that 'Sam' was a fake,"
Moore told the House subcommittee on courts and intellectual
property.
"No one should be able to take someone's else's identity as an
artist and pretend to be them. If it's not Sam Moore singing
'Soul Man,' no one should pretend to be Sam Moore," Kucinich
said.
The House panel heard testimony from Moore and Joe Terry, an
original from the Danny and the Juniors act, supporting a
proposed amendment to a 1940s-era copyright law that would
protect the identities of original performers.
Mary Wilson, a charter member of the Diana Ross-led Supremes,
said she spent more than $2 million to fight legal battles
against the fake groups.
Entangled record contracts and complicated copyright provisions
have kept some of the disputes in court for years, performers
said.
Kucinich said the problem is so prevalent that music groups he
considered to be impostors performed at the 1992 and 1996
presidential inauguration celebrations.
"We have to make sure that they're (impostors) not making a
great amount of money pretending to be who they're not, and
make sure the people who are the real deal, the real issue, the
real rock 'n' roll artists, real Hall of Famers; that they get
the recognition and that they also get the financial
compensation," Kucinich said.
