Description
For lovers of American vocal groups, 1963 was a vintage year and the last in which the home team had the field more or less to themselves. In those innocent months before the hairy hordes from across the pond would tear down the walls of Tin Pan Alley, US teens luxuriated in the chart-topping sounds of the Essex, the Chiffons, the 4 Seasons, the Angels, and the Tymes, with the Ronettes, Vandellas & Jaynetts all snapping at their heels. One of the tastier titbits amidst this smorgasbord of goodies was Our Day Will Come, the sublime debut of Ruby & the Romantics, four guys and a gal from Akron, Ohio.
With so many of their contemporaries feted today, Ruby & the Romantics are often overlooked in the ranks of the great vocal groups. But make no mistake, they were a fabulous act; the silky, intensely layered and often adventurous harmonies of the male quartet always supplying the perfect counterpoint to one of the greatest lead vocalists of the era, the immaculate Ruby Nash. RPM present the highlights of their career for the Kapp label, 1963-1966 on a comprehensive double CD collection.
This includes the big No.1 and title track here, the original versions of ‘Hey There Lonely Girl’ (a hit for Eddie Holman in 1974), ‘When You're Young And In Love’ (a hit in 1967 for the Marvelettes and for the Flying Picketts in 1984), plus their other Pop and R&B chart picks.
This gorgeous package also contains an essay by noted 60's girl-group collectors Mick Patrick and Malcolm Baumgart.
