You Know What I Mean [Audio CD]

Description

Stars of Jack Good’s TV shows Oh Boy! and Boy Meets Girls, The Vernons Girls were pretty much a cottage industry of their own, with their various satellites and spinoffs. A sixteen-girl ensemble when Jack discovered them in 1957, by the turn of the 60s they’d slimmed down to a trio, their ex-members either pursuing solo careers or forming rival vocal duos/trios. Concentrating on their R&R and Pop output, this compilation traces their early careers variously as The Vernons Girls, Two Vernons Girls and spinoffs in the shape of a handful of Lynn Cornell’s early solo 45s, plus singles by The De Laine Sisters and The Breakaways. Includes chart and turntable hits like ‘Let’s Get Together’, ‘Madison Time’, ‘Lover Please’, ‘Never On Sunday’, ‘You Know What I Mean’, ‘The Locomotion’ and ‘Funny All Over’. Surprisingly, several of these sides are unavailable elsewhere on CD, making this a must-have for the gals’ vast legions of fans.
