The Barry Sisters - I Must Be Dreaming (1964)

Fantastic version of a great Neil Sedaka and Howard Greenfield composition. Recorded a few years earler by Neil as a b-side ballad. The Barry Sisters were known for their albums of Jewish, Irish and Italian songs. Did not chart nationally but charted locally at #49 on the WHYN 560 AM radio survey in Springfield, Massachusetts in early 1964. B-side is "Nobody's Asking Questions (But Everybody Wants To Know)".

@lateforbreakfast Thank you very much!

I`ve always loved this by Neil Sedaka. This version is new for me. You never cease to amaze me Tom.

@MrSidneyAgain Thanks very much Mark! It's a great version, isn't it?

[MrSidneyAgain]

I can't believe this is the Barry Sisters! Their own style of music is so great - they just don't fit into this pop mode. Sorry ladies - I love you but not like this. RIP Myrna.

Am I the only one that doesn't particularly care for Neil's version? This one's got his pop sound down pat, and when I heard his way later, I was surprised...anyway, this is as good as girl group sides get...5*****

@LilKama1 Neil can get more.

[LilKama1]

This would be better if it was slowed down some.

All in all, a great cover(:

@BlackMonk66 I said "nu, who knew?"

[BlackMonk66]

@shmuli9 Sorry, my Yiddish is limited to the three or four words that everyone knows. Maybe a couple more after I've been drinking. You lost me after "nu."
