|

Every single volume of this collection is worthy, but some of them are now hard to find.
|

Buy used from: £14.98 Comprehensive brit girl compilation and the first one I have ever had. Includes some evident classics as well as a couple of precious obscurities.
|
 | You Gotta Believe It's... by Sharon Tandy
Buy new: £11.98 / Used from: £8.49 I had to wait ages to have this one. An immaculate and under-appreciated musician herself, you shouldn't miss the magnificent voice of this South African white soul/freakbeat diva.
|
 | Foolish Seasons by Dana Gillespie

|
 | That's How It Goes: The Pye Anthology by The Breakaways & Friends
Buy used from: £31.70 British equivalent of L.A.'s Blossoms, they were the most in demand session singers of the swinging sixties.

Buy used from: £9.99 A successful songwriter, but underrated singer (with an extraordinary, maybe too much powerful voice)
|
 | Tell Him - The Decca Years by Billie Davis
Buy new: £2.98 / Used from: £4.72 Blue-eyed soul. Strangely enough, one of the most succesful british female singers in my country, Spain, back in the 60's. Try the rpm compilation too.
|
 | The Paper Dolls House: The Pye Anthology by Paper Dolls
Buy used from: £35.00 Some people say they were the Spice Girls of the 60's. Well, I believe they were quite more talented...
|
 | Helen Shapiro at Abbey Road: 1961-1967 by Helen Shapiro
Buy new: £7.79 / Used from: £3.71 Too much class in such a little body at such a young age. The question is: how long will we have to wait for a decent box set compilation? If somebody deserves such a treatment that is Miss Shapiro
|
 | End of a Rainbow: a Pye Anthology by Jackie Lee
Buy new: £7.98 At long last, you can please your ears with Jackie Lee's fabulous vocals. She has been underrated for so long, this compilation is the less she deserves...
|

Buy new: £7.98 Again, I have waited years for this to be released. One of the few British female songwriters of the 60's. A must.
