| | Best Of The Girl Groups Vol. 1 CD (2 Customer Reviews)
Rhino's Best of the Girl Groups, Vol. 1 collects 18 of the greatest girl group singles, including the Ad Libs' "The Boy From New York City," Betty Everett's "The Shoop Shoop Song (It's In His Kiss)," the Exciters' "He's Got the Power," and Claudine Clark's "Party Lights." The Shangri-Las have no less than three of their singles -- "Leader of the Pack," "Remember (Walking in the Sand)," and "Give Him a Great Big Kiss" -- included here, while two of the Shirelles' finest, "Baby It's You" and "Will You Love Me Tomorrow," and the Chiffons' "He's So Fine" and "One Fine Day" reaffirm why all three acts are among the best girl groups. Most of the style's big hits, such as the Dixie Cups' "Chapel of Love," are featured, but the lesser-known tracks, like the Jaynetts' "Sally, Go Round the Roses," Evie Sands' "I Can't Let Go," and Skeeter Davis' "I Can't Stay Mad at You," keep the collection interesting for more serious fans of girl group pop. A solid, entertaining album, Best of the Girl Groups, Vol. 1 is a must for anyone interested in one of the most distinctive sounds of the '60s. ~ Heather Phares

Although Roger Rodier is Canadian, this rare early-'70s singer/songwriter album sounds almost as if it could have been made in Britain, such is its similarity to folk-rock recordings of the time by the likes of Al Stewart. In fact Rodier faintly resembles Stewart vocally, and has an inclination toward gentle, slightly sad songs mixing acoustic guitar, orchestration, and female backup vocals (a combination used by ...

Best Of The Girl Groups Vol. 1

Destined. If you needed one word to describe Omikron, that is what it would be. After hearing his smart lyrics, skilled delivery, and unmistakable beat production, combined with the knowledge that he puts it all together under his own banner of Dragonfire Entertainment, it is the only word that you need. Destined. For notice, growth, and definitely for success. After a life of ups, downs, and drama at every turn, it isn't suprising that his music touches a chord with all who hear it, in one way or another.Born in 1981, and raised in New Jersey, the hip-hop culture surrounded Omikron right from the start. With his ear glued to such legends as Rakim, LL Cool J, Dr.Dre, and the Wu-Tang Clan, he began writing from inspiration at an early age. Due to Kron's knack for finding trouble at that time, he was often confined in his room leaving plenty of time to explore his own methods of making music. By age 13 he had recorded three low-quality tapes with little to no help at all.In 1993 Omikron, then known by his nickname Stix, formed The Assassins with his longtime friend Big Daddy D. The Assassins only made on tape before going their seperate ways, leaving Omikron again writing and producing his own material. During his high school years he became part of a few different groups, but none of the projects produced any solid material. After a long list of dramatic events and a major falling out with associates and friends, Omikron met an emcee by the name of Calaber. The two vibed instantly and ended up collaborating on an album called "No More Games". The album was released locally in 2003 under Omikron's ...
