'Boys Can be Mean' Mean includes as sensational a set of 60s songbirds as one could hope to find. It is a stunning 61-track compilation of US femme pop gems from the Red Bird, Vee-Jay, Sound Stage 7 and Fire & Fury labels including the solo thrushes and girl groups, R&B divas and teen angels, who continue to influence and captivate contemporary pop and fashion. The 2-CD set with a lovingly-generated accompanying booklet runs the gamut of teen emotion from despair to elation with stone classics such as 'Gettin' Mighty Crowded' (Betty Everett), 'Letter Full Of Tears' (Gladys Knight & The Pips), 'Please Don't Go' (Yvonne Carroll) to lesser-heard but no less-angsty contributions from Tracey Dey, Melinda Marx and The Clinger Sisters. Combining collector's favourites with a helping of Hot 100 hits, this set also includes sixteen recordings not previously available on CD including several making their first official release on shiny, among them Barbara Green, The Angelos and Judy Thomas. The set also features a hidden bonus track by Karen Kelly, also making its CD debut.

60 Fabulous Femme Pop recordings 1961-67 featuring The Shangri-Las, Gladys Knight, The Dixie Cups, Betty Everett, Ellie Greenwich, Shelley Fabares and many more. Package includes a 20-page memorabilia-laden booklet, informative liner notes plus a hidden bonus track.
Following on the kitten heels of Charly’s critically acclaimed Shangri-Las: Remember… [SNAX625CD] and The Red Bird Story [SNAX626CD], comes a stunning 2CD compilation of US Femme Pop gems from the Red Bird, Vee-Jay, Sound Stage 7, Black Pearl, Fire and Fury labels. Comprising solo thrushes and girl groups, R&B divas and teen angels, Boys Can Be Mean is as sensational a set of 60s songbirds as one could hope to find.
The genre continues to influence and captivate contemporary pop and fashion; the late Amy Winehouse cited The Shangri-Las among her favourites, while Grammy Award-winning Adele’s musical bloodline has much in common with white Soul singers such as Evie Sands and deep soul greats like Bessie Banks.
Boys Can Be Mean runs the gamut of teen emotion from despair to elation with stone classics such as ‘Gettin’ Mighty Crowded’ (Betty Everett), ‘Letter Full Of Tears’ (Gladys Knight & The Pips), ‘Please Don’t Go’ (Yvonne Carroll) with lesser-heard but no less-angsty contributions from Tracey Dey, Melinda Marx and The Clinger Sisters.
Combining collector’s favourites with a helping of Hot 100 hits, this set also includes 14 rare recordings not previously available on CD plus several making their first official reissue release, among them Barbara Green, The Angelos and Judy Thomas. The set also features a hidden bonus track new-to-CD.
