Free Music Review: Perfect For Completist Collectors
Hit: 5 Stars

Actually, to expand upon another review, this CD contains both sides of all five hits, and so is a perfect buy for completist collectors.

Discovered by New Orleans talent scout and bandleader Joe Jones while they were still attending Southern University, sisters Barbara Ann and Rosie Lee Hawkins and their cousin Joan Marie Johnson were handed a song written originally by Phil Spector, Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich for The Ronettes.

Why they never recorded it is a mystery, but as Red Bird 001, Chapel Of Love sure got Leiber & Stoller's label off with a bang by hitting # 1 Billboard Hot 100/R&B in June 1964, and staying there for three weeks, right in the midst of the early phases of the British Invasion. The flip was Ain't That Nice.

And while they didn't fare nearly as well with their second hit, People Say, it still finished a quite respectable # 12 Hot 100/R&B in August b/w Girls Can Tell. By November, however, the growing multitude of bands from the U.K. began taking its toll on all but the very best North American artists, and so You Should Have Seen The Way He Looked At Me just made the Top 40, settling for a # 39 Hot 100/R&B b/w No True Love.

When, early in 1965, Little Bell peaked at # 51 Hot 100/R&B b/w Another Boy Like Mine, it looked like the end of their run. But hold on, they had one more substantial kick at the can, and in April 1965 the quaint, semi-traditional New Orleans chant, Iko Iko, reached # 20 on both charts b/w Gee Baby Gee. The song then received new life in 1987 when it was featured in the film, and soundtrack CD, The Big Easy.

As one of two primary groups responsible for the temporary success of Red Bird [along with The Shangri-Las], this is an absolute must-have for both completist collectors and those who focus on the girl group sound of the Sixties. Good job, Collectables.
