Search - Caravelles :: You Don't Have to Be a Baby to Cry

UK collection from the '60s British female Pop duo. Lois Wilkinson and Andrea Simpson got together to record a few demos in 1963. Lois , who also played guitar, had the musical connections and played said demos to Harry Robinson, and in turn Ritz Productions impresario Bunny Lewis. A re-cut of 'You Don't Have To Be Baby To Cry' was leased to Decca - a #6 UK and #3 U.S. smash hit resulted, and a pop career was born. Included here are their one LP, also released in 1963, plus their subsequent eight singles and one EP leased to different labels up to 1968. All properly reissued for the first time. Stand outs include the major hit, gorgeous versions of 'Winter's Here' retitled as 'You Are Here', the Gene Pitney song 'True Love Never Runs Smooth', the Everly's 'So Sad', and the Spector-esque Folk Rock tour de force 'Hey Mama You've Been On My Mind'. Produced with full assistance of Lois and Andrea, packaging includes rare photos from their archives and fresh interviews. RPM.
