I didn't think it was a great list but there were a couple I didn't know.

How can 2 people do a top 10 without including anything by The Crystals?

Top 10 Crystals.

1)He's A Rebel

2)There's No Other Like My Baby

3)Then He Kissed Me

4)Little Boy

5)Da Do Ron Ron

6)He Hit Me (It Felt Like A Kiss)

7)Look In My Eyes

8)Uptown

9)Another Country - Another World

10)Girls Can Tell

That ticks most boxes apart from the gaping Shangri Las shaped hole in the middle...

Plus you've got the wrong Ronettes songs. I think you meant to include Do I Love You and Keep On Dancing instead.

I heard a great reggae version of ‘Remember (Walking in the Sand)’ on Saturday, by Hollie Cook (daughter of Paul). The rhythms (is that spelt ‘riddims’?) are great and it’s no Trustafarian effort.

And Milchy's list is peachy - especially that Whyte Boots song.

Not including anything by THE COOKIES (or spin-offs/pseudonyms like THE HONEY BEES, CINDERELLAS, PALISADES, EARL-JEAN etc) is criminal IMO!

Some great choices there, Rich. The only one I don't agree with - personal taste, obviously, is that track by the Girls. Always irritated me.
