Product Review

2010 collection. The Royalettes were one of the classiest American girl groups of the mid-'60s. This compilation offers their entire recorded output for MGM, issued across 1965 and 1966. The thirty tracks include two whole albums plus three non-album singles/B-sides. Hailing from Baltimore, Maryland, the quartet consisted of Sheila Ross, her sister Anita, Veronica Brown and Terry Flippen. They performed in the Big Town girl sound style similar to the Channels and Orlons. Many of their MGM recordings were arranged and produced by the legendary Teddy Randazzo.
