Rating:  out of 5 stars - A Year of My Life
I am the credited director and co-producer of this documentary. I was surprised to see that Amazon actually has the video, I thought it was long gone. No DVD's, too bad. I drifted onto Amazon because a good buddy of mine loved this era and I wanted to get a copy for him. Glad to see that Girl Groups, The Story of a Sound still lives, such as it is.

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Please someone (MGM? SONY?) re-issue this gem on DVD!
This is the ultimate 60s girl group documentary. Excellent commentary by Ellie Greenwich, Ronnie Spector, Darlene Love.

the Shangri-Las. But the total absence of the Chiffons
("I Have A Boyfriend")-promised on the VHS artwork-was a
big disappointment. The VHS Hi-Fi sound was very good
