Posted July 1, 201410 yr Just found this in the garage, The Hi-Tones "Girls" Seg-Way It's a version of The Shirelles song "Boys" and has a pretty good R&B backing track and gritty vocals (B side is doo wop) Not saying it's anything, just wondered if it was known cheers
July 1, 201410 yr I may be mixing songs up. But I have a distant memory of Brian Mathew playing this on his Saturday morning show. He went through a spell of playing songs that 'replied' to hit songs. eg the response to the Shirelles will you still love me tomorrow by Bertelle Dache - Not just tomorrow but always.

I've got a few compilations of these answer type records, mainly Belgian boots (the comps I mean), must be around 100 tracks...the amount of records released really is mind boggling

July 1, 201410 yr Just FYI Pete, it has been booted so check it. Needs to have a Bell Sound. Was covered by the Beatles somewhere or other so completists want it. Good luck with it
