Description
The Jelly Beans (that's them on the cover) contribute 'How Fine Can One Guy Be', one of the eight previously unissued numbers on Volume 7. Gems by the Fashionettes, Joani Camp, Beverly Williams, the Jaynetts, Brenda Holloway, Claudine Clark and the Satisfactions also debut here. The Teardrops kick off proceedings with the majestic 'Tears Come Tumbling', while Baby Jane & the Rockabyes close the show with an outlandish version of the Broadway chestnut 'Get Me To The Church On Time'. Along the way, the Shirelles deliver a cover of the Playmates' 1958 hit 'What Is Love', the Jewels weigh in with a remake of their earlier B-side 'Smokie Joe's', this time with James Brown at the helm, and Marry (sic) Clayton and Barbara Mason step up to the mike for the first time, launching successful careers that continue to this day.
