Rating:  - Many Famliar Tunes, Some Hidden Gems - Never Presented Better
The wonderful mix of relatively easy-to-find Girl Group Sound offerings with some that are appearing in CD format for the first time continues in this 2nd volume of yet another great series from Ace of London (see also their Golden Age Of American Rock `n' Roll and instrumental Teen Beat series as other examples).

Rating: - Old gems from the fifties and sixties
This impressive collection of recordings by female singers, laid down between 1955 and 1963, is the second of three volumes. Few of the ladies featured here had a lot of hits, but Peggy Lee (Fever) and Dinah Washington (September in the rain) were very prolific.

Rating: - Another strong effort
Ace rolls out its second volume of early girl and girl-led group sounds. This time, there are six tunes that did not make it into the top 100 and that may seem to be a bit of a letdown in content but when looking at the overall repertoire, this series still beats just about anything else of the genre out there. With enough (ten) top-10 songs to keep the music familiar, there are lots of seldom-found sides making the listening much more interesting and not sounding like every other oldies comp. Between such monster ... Read More
Rating:  - Go Girls!
This CD has excellent sound & some groovy songs including "I'll Save The Last Dance For You" (Damita Jo) and the beautiful "September In the Rain".
