Welcome To Rockin Treasures
Label / Cat # - 1965 Phil Spector Records UK
B Side - Wall Of Sound - Bramwell Robitaille & Carr
Condition (vinyl/sleeve) - Vinyl with Phil Spector International sleeve as pictured. First off this is one of the greatest rock songs ever. The vinyl looks in excellent condition. No scratches or scuffs and very clean for a almost 50 year old record. The sound of this record is outstanding, the vocals and music jump out of the speakers. The record played in the very beginning has 3 or maybe 4 minor pops and thats it. It is very faint and does not effect the joy this record will give you for many years. Visually there is nothing there and as I said great condition.
HOME OF THE BRAVE Bonnie and the Treasures It doesn't really sound that much like Ronnie Spector, does it? Rumors to the contrary apparently notwithstanding, Charlotte O'Hara (née Matheny) sang lead on this Mark II version of Phil Spector's Wall of Sound, produced by Spector protégé Jerry Riopelle and issued on a short-lived Philles subsidiary label. Behind Charlotte were Sherlie Matthews and Clydie King. The song, by Brill Building experts Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, is a Shangri-Las-y tale told by a teenage girl who can't understand why her boyfriend was suspended from school — for the length of his hair, fercrissake. "Land of the free," indeed. This little story was full of contemporary resonance, and I don't mean recording-studio echo either, and it probably would have been an enormous hit had Capitol not released a far blander version with country-crossover artist Jody Miller, who charted at #25.
