The Royalettes were the classiest of all the girl groups of the 60's. They recorded this with Teddy Randazzo in 1965, but released it as a single in 1966. It appeared on the 'I Want To Meet Him' album, but followed the version by Holly Maxwell as a 45. The Royalettes, though perhaps more Pop-Soul, recorded songs that were amazingly as elegant as they were as a group. And Sheila Ross rocks in my book. Hope you enjoy one of my favorite Royalettes tracks.

Sheila's lead, the tight harmony of these girls from my hometown, are always hauntingly beautiful to me...a local disc jockey named Paul "Fat Daddy" Johnson saw the brilliance in the Royalettes, supported their career on his show and through his contacts in music...pghpookie, thank you for posting, including the snapshots of Bmore's yesteryear, when we had all we needed to woo the world.

Dang, the Royalettes should've been bigger. I remember them when I was a kid and their two hits MIracle, and I Want to Meet Him. Wondeful sound and harmonies are out of this world plus Ms. Ross's leads are great and soothing.

pghpookie I notice the care you take into your slide shows...scenes of Baltimore for this group from that city...Chicago for Barbara Greene...the Brooklyn Bridge for Gene pitt & the Jive Five...this viewer appreciates it.

i couldn't agree more. soooo tired of the mass appeal programed same sounding 'hits' of the day. no variety, little talent, and mindless noise. pookie
