Description:
Leaders Of The Pack: The Very Best Of The 60's Girl Groups is the ultimate 60s girl collection with over 20 tracks from some of the most celebrated female artists & girl bands of all time.
The unmistakable skipping backbeat and metronomic rhythms combined with the perfect harmonization of the singers became hallmarks of the movement characteristics which are superbly presented on this collection.
The 'Girl Group' genre of the time was characterized by high-end production and dramatic arrangements, and producers were often as important to the recordings as the artists themselves. It is from this movement Phil Spector, the most famous and influential producer of the era, emerged.
Fashion became a key aspect of the girl group phenomenon, especially as the acts began to be invited to appear on variety television programs and musical revues. Despite their often-humble backgrounds, the girl groups wore the latest and most stylish dresses (often in matching sets) and set styles for hair and clothing. The fashion aspect of the collection is represented in the stunning cover-art reminiscent of high-end fashion tote-bags with an unmistakable feminine touch and vintage feel.
