  1. The Crystals - He’s a Rebel

    Written by Gene Pitney and originally recorded in 1962. First by Vikki Carr, followed by a version credited to girl group the Crystals.
    The latter was produced by Phil Spector immediately after learning of the imminent release of Carr's version.
    He enlisted the Blossoms, with Darlene Love on lead and tenor Bobby Sheen added on harmony, and credited them as the Crystals, who were not consulted on his decision. [Wikipedia]

  8. Today's Track of the Week is a song I discovered a few weeks ago. It's from DJ Tatana and is called "Let the Sunshine in". I remember being on one of her concerts in Zurich many years ago. It was a beautiful experience. And she still knows how to make music. 😌
