I watched LAST NIGHT IN SOHO earlier this year, and although I didn't like the film I was very impressed by the soundtrack. It led me to Sandie Shaw, whose best music mixed the influences of American girl groups and French chanson. (In the '80s, she signed to Rough Trade and covered the Smiths.) Does anyone have further recommendations for '60s Britsh pop in this vein? https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64057#msg-64057 Fri, 06 Mar 2026 00:20:10 +0000 Phorum 5.2.23 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64073#msg-64073 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64073#msg-64073 steevee Trouser Press Tue, 26 Apr 2022 14:54:20 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64072#msg-64072 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64072#msg-64072
It stars a very Mod looking Kiki Dee (who 10 years later had a hit singing a duet with Elton John) singing a very Burt Bacharach sounding song called "Small Town". Definitely fits the Dusty, LuLu, Sadie mold.

Then it is followed by a very early, pre-Ian McLagen, Small Faces signing "I've Got Mine".

Just Aces!!!

Kiki Dee's song starts at 3:40

Small Faces starts at 6:10]]> jothoma Trouser Press Mon, 25 Apr 2022 23:51:02 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64071#msg-64071 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64071#msg-64071 MrFab Trouser Press Mon, 25 Apr 2022 17:53:01 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64070#msg-64070 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64070#msg-64070 Middle C Trouser Press Mon, 25 Apr 2022 14:31:31 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64069#msg-64069 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64069#msg-64069 Middle C Trouser Press Mon, 25 Apr 2022 13:03:24 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64068#msg-64068 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64068#msg-64068 Post-Punk Monk Trouser Press Mon, 25 Apr 2022 12:14:39 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64067#msg-64067 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64067#msg-64067 Aitch Trouser Press Mon, 25 Apr 2022 12:12:01 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64066#msg-64066 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64066#msg-64066 ira Trouser Press Mon, 25 Apr 2022 00:16:13 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64065#msg-64065 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64065#msg-64065 Delvin Trouser Press Sun, 24 Apr 2022 22:14:38 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64064#msg-64064 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64064#msg-64064 Heff Trouser Press Sun, 24 Apr 2022 20:44:07 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64063#msg-64063 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64063#msg-64063 Bip Trouser Press Sun, 24 Apr 2022 10:13:53 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64061#msg-64061 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64061#msg-64061 steevee Trouser Press Sun, 24 Apr 2022 03:21:13 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64060#msg-64060 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64060#msg-64060
Ah, I see that the soundtrack features Scott w/The Walker Brothers, and Dusty. Well, there ya go. Good place to start as any:

To go beyond that: Lulu is indeed a good bet. I am hardly a fan of Neil Diamond, but Lulu's "Boat That I Row" is a gem. And I never woulda thunk that the Isley Brother's "Shout" would be a suitable choice for her, but she knocks it out of the park.]]> MrFab Trouser Press Sun, 24 Apr 2022 01:18:29 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64059#msg-64059 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64059#msg-64059 Bip Trouser Press Sun, 24 Apr 2022 00:26:55 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64058#msg-64058 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64058#msg-64058 ira Trouser Press Sat, 23 Apr 2022 21:07:26 +0000 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64057#msg-64057 https://trouserpress.com/forum/read.php?1,64057,64057#msg-64057 steevee Trouser Press Sat, 23 Apr 2022 17:55:19 +0000
