Britain was the world’s undisputed centre of pop in the 1960s. Though male groups dominated the UK charts, each of the four main record labels had a girl singer to satisfy those teenagers in need of a heroine fix.

Together four of the girls - Sandie Shaw, Lulu, Dusty Springfield and Cilla Black - scored nearly 60 top 40 UK hits between 1963 and the end of the decade, including half a dozen number ones. Petula Clark, who was older and ended up with the unenviable ‘easy listening’ tag, added a further ten hits and one chart topper to the tally.

Dusty Springfield was the most successful British female performer, with six top 20 singles on the US Billboard Hot 100 and sixteen on the UK Singles Chart from 1963 to 1989. She is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and UK Music Hall of Fame. Her image, supported by a peroxide blonde bouffant hairstyle, evening gowns, and heavy make-up, as well as her flamboyant performances, made her an icon.

Sandie Shaw This barefoot songstress became the first British entry to win the Eurovision Song Contest with "Puppet on a String" which hit number one in the UK in 1967. She had two further UK number one singles with “(There’s) Always Something There to Remind Me” (1964), and “Long Live Love” (1965). In 1984 she returned to the UK top 40, for the first time in 15 years with her cover of the Smiths song “Hand in Glove“.

Cilla Black hailed from Liverpool and knew the Beatles when they all played at The Cavern Club together and they championed her early career. Her singles “Anyone Who Had a Heart” and “You’re My World” both reached number one in the UK in 1964. She had 11 top 10 hits on the UK Singles Chart between then and 1971. Later on Black very successfully hosted TV Chat and Game Shows and at one time was the highest paid entertainer on British TV.

Lulu is a Scottish singer-songwriter known for her powerful singing voice. She is best known for her 1964 hit “Shout” and "To Sir, with Love" from the 1967 film of the same name which was a US number one and became the best-selling US single of 1967. Later in her career she had hits internationally including the title song to the 1974 James Bond film The Man with the Golden Gun.

Marianne Faithfull achieved popularity in the 1960s with the release of her hit single “As Tears Go By” and became one of the lead female artists during the British Invasion in the United States. Discovered by Andrew Loog Oldham, the manager of the Rolling Stones, Faithfull had a highly publicised romantic relationship with Mick Jagger. Her popularity was further enhanced by her film roles, such as I’ll Never Forget What’s ’is name (1967), The Girl on a Motorcycle (1968), and Hamlet (1969).

Helen Shapiro is a British pop singer, jazz singer, and actress best known for her two 1961 UK chart toppers, “You Don’t Know” and “Walkin’ Back to Happiness“, both recorded when she was just fourteen years old. When she went on tour in 1963. The Beatles were actually her support act.

Petula Clark had her first hit in 1954 with “The Little Shoemaker” - the first of her big UK hits. In late 1964 Clark’s global success extended to America with a four-year run of career-defining, often upbeat singles, many written or co-written by Tony Hatch (and Jackie Trent). These include her signature song “Downtown“, plus “I Know a Place“, “My Love“, “A Sign of the Times“, “I Couldn’t Live Without Your Love“, “Who Am I“, “Colour My World“, “This Is My Song” (by Charlie Chaplin), “Don’t Sleep in the Subway“, “The Other Man’s Grass Is Always Greener” and “Kiss Me Goodbye“. She has sold more than 68 million records worldwide.

Jackie Trent was a singer-songwriter and actress who was best known for co-writing (with Tony Hatch) the theme tunes to the dating game show Mr & Mrs for Border Television in 1975 and the Australian soap opera Neighbours in 1985. Her first single, “Pick Up the Pieces”, was released in 1962 and three years later she scored her first hit with “Where Are You Now (My Love)“.

Mary Hopkin a Welsh folk singer, was one of the earliest signings to the Beatles‘ Apple label, and she is best known for her 1968 UK number one single “Those Were the Days" which was produced by Paul McCartney. Her next single was “Goodbye“, written by McCartney (credited to Lennon-McCartney), and released on 26 March 1969.

Twinkle was an English singer-songwriter who had chart successes in the 1960s with her best known songs “Golden Lights" and "Terry". Her song “Terry” was a teenage tragedy song about the death of a boyfriend in a motorcycle crash. Big Jim Sullivan, Jimmy Page and Bobby Graham were among the high-profile star session musicians who played on the recording. The record caused a furore, accusations of bad taste leading to a ban from the BBC.

Billie Davis is an English female singer who is best remembered for the UK hit version of the song, “Tell Him” (1963) and “I Want You to Be My Baby” (1968). Davis was an early proponent of many of the fashion styles for which the 1960s are remembered: bobbed hair, long boots of the kind popularised by Honor Blackman in early episodes of The Avengers and leather mini-skirts.

Susan Maughan’s most famous and successful song, “Bobby’s Girl” (a cover of the Marcie Blane single), reached number three in the UK Singles Chart at Christmas time in 1962. It also reached number six in the Norwegian chart in that year. Maughan had further minor UK hits entitled “Hand a Handkerchief to Helen” and “She’s New to You”.

Alma Cogan was an English singer in the 1950s and early 1960s. Dubbed the “Girl with the Giggle in Her Voice”, she was the highest paid British female entertainer of her era. Many of her recordings were covers of U.S. hits and “Bell Bottom Blues“, became her first hit. She was also famous for her obsession with glamourous gowns.

Julie Grant is an English pop music singer who had three hits on the UK Singles Chart with “Up on the Roof”, “Count on Me” and “Come to Me” (1964) She also recorded a cover version of “Every Day I Have to Cry” (1964).

Spanning the full spectrum of the scene, known for its gratifying diversity, this 20CD box set offers slick originals and intriguing covers, from early girls to late girls, beat girls, folk girls, hippy girls and mod girls. Here, you’ll also find the brash teenagers, the raw belters, the wistful balladeers, the brassy pub singers, the breathy harmonisers and the bluesy shouters.

  1. Thanks K and Butterboy,
    What a mammoth complication! I would like to listen to early tracks from several of the artists, but this will take a while to get through! I wish the tracks had been dated, though...

  2. What a collection of songs!!!!!!. Thank you very very much

  3. Wow! Thank you BB and K I think it was Petula Clark's birthday yesterday (91 years old!) - it's a shame the UK didn't have any girl groups like Motown.

    1. Thanks, Herve,
      The credit is all to K., it's his project. His hard work (often hundreds of hours) and his tenacious approach to collating only the best quality sound and identifying tracks that truly live in the space he explores, is an inspiration, that I am proud to facilitate.
      Cheers.

  10. Your comment to @lemonflag is also appropriate to me. I'm currently thinking of 2 x 10TB drives to combine all my backups and storage from a large collection of various sized hdds. They become unmanageable after a while. Many thanks to K (there's a breakfast cereal called "Special K" which sums him up nicely), and to you for storage and facilitation. Que la force soit toujours avec toi!
