The Sherilles - She's Gonna Make it, is this a cover, or loosely based around another well known track? cant help but feel I've nearly heard this before?  I know they got all manner of songs given to them, some of which had very famous 'other' versions, 'You Could Be My Remedy' is a good example of Trade Martin's classic that they did.

Is it 'The Lovelites - My Conscience' something like that?  I know these lyrics, just cant place them..

Curtis Colbert and a lass whose name I’ve forgotten. I think it’s on the LP cover

Thanks Ady I bought the LP many moons ago and like this Blog had no idea who they actually were and I should have guessed Curtis but always doubted myself

The Shirelles track reminds me of Vessie Simmons- I can make it on my own.

 

Vessie Simmons did appear as Vessie Simmons & The Fabulous Shirelles. The case (fraud) went to court, Vessie was acquitted but her manager Charles Cascales was convicted of mail fraud. sending out brochures and photo's depicting just The Shirelles.

Be nice if there's a bit of a revival of the Vessie Simmons track, fantastic 70's dancer, deserves to up there with king Tut, flaming king ect with true classic status. 

always thought it was up there, it's a better record than King Tut,  maybe this way the price will stay low so folks new it can get a copy easily...  at least dealers cant say "Discussed on Soul Source" and whack the price up.... a novel thought... laughing

Anybody have some info on The Sherilles ?

I am sure Ady has another track or theirs "nobody's gonna love you".
Heard it from some of his FB 100 Club lockdown live shows - or am I dreaming ?
Pretty damn amazing as I recall.

T.

It happened with the Paramount four on southern city, ok, it's rarer, but it certainly got more attention after,

' sorry ain't the word'.

Confused of Banbury here.

Are Ady's Sherilles the same group as The Shirelles ?
From the thread and peeps comments it seems they are.

T.

No, they’re a group containing Vessie Simmons from the West Coast, produced by George Semper who changed their name to the Sherrills when they got their wrists slapped
