Who Were The Shirelles?
The Shirelles formed in Passaic, New Jersey, as high school friends Shirley Owens, Doris Coley, Addie 'Micki' Harris and Beverly Lee, going on to become one of the most influential and successful girl groups of the pre-British Invasion era. Signed to Scepter Records and working closely with producer Luther Dixon, the group released a run of acclaimed albums beginning with 1960's Tonight's the Night, which was later selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the National Recording Registry.
About This Compilation And The Group's Lasting Influence
Released in 1972, Remember When gathers highlights from across The Shirelles' Scepter Records catalogue, offering a strong overview of the group's hit-filled run through the early and mid-1960s. Their signature song, Will You Love Me Tomorrow, made history as the first single by a girl group to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1961, while further hits including Dedicated To The One I Love, Baby It's You and Mama Said cemented their status as pioneers of the genre. The group's influence stretched well beyond their own era: their song Boys, originally released as a B-side, was later covered by The Beatles on their 1963 debut album Please Please Me, a direct testament to the group's impact on the British Invasion bands that would soon dominate the pop charts.
