Recently picked this up.

A copy of the Perma-Hit release in a sleeve with (presumably) original period scribble which says:

"Vanessa Henley, leader of the Sharp-ette's

[mis-spelling according to group name on label]

. Henry Smith Jr. is the manager. 8981911."

Henry Smith co-wrote 'Just say you're wanted and needed' for Gwen Owens. I bet he can be found with some time and effort

I suspect that they were a local Detroit group. I never heard anything about their names, or if they appeared in any of the Detroit venues back in the mid '60s.

Thanks guys

I love the label name Perma-Hit - reminds me of Perma-Frost - but a great concept - a permanent hit ...

Keep Looking (But I Guess I'll Never Find Him) is a totally charming girl group record.

Shame not more is known about the group - nevertheless, thanks for the info folks

Cheers

Richard
