Cheers Billy 1 group I believe. Had releases on RCA & Impact. Well that's what I've got records by 'em on. Phil
Guest Posted March 11, 2006 Posted March 11, 2006 Lollipops recorded on V.I.P. also RCA , Impact, Atlantic, Atco, SSS also on Smash and Mercury, but the last two maybe different group, also seems a bit of mystery if the RCA and V.I.P. releases are also different groups.
Guest rachel Posted March 11, 2006 Posted March 11, 2006 Sure there's at least two different ones... puzzled over this a while back and having listened to a few of them sounded very different vocally... was also told that some were the same and others different... but it was at least a year ago so can't remember details, would have to do a bit of searching through old emails etc... maybe later! Be interested to hear a few of the tracks if anyone can post them up
Guest Posted March 11, 2006 Posted March 11, 2006 (edited) Lollipops also recorded a 45' on Gordy 7089 Cheating Is Telling On You/Need Your Love, seems to be a rare one this. (To be honest not 100% certain this ever got issued, definitely got a catalogue number ?) Edited March 11, 2006 by Brett

Guest Matt Male Posted March 11, 2006 Posted March 11, 2006 (edited) Here's a site for those interested in girls groups. https://www.history-of-rock.com/girl-groups.htm Heard an interesting programme on the radio a while back as well about the phenomenon where they were saying thet they weren't really divided along racial lines (black girl groups and white girl groups) but along whether they were good girls or bad girls. The bad girls sang about boyfriends and going out and the good girls sang about love. The Ronettes were bad girls, the Chiffons were good girls etc... Matt Edited March 11, 2006 by Matt Male
Guest Posted March 11, 2006 Posted March 11, 2006 That's the same A and B side as one of the VIP releases isn't it? Yes Rachel, V.I.P. 25051, be interested to know the Gordy mystery.
