Scratch My Back! Pye Beat Girls 1963-68 / Various
Shrink-wrapped
Located in London's West End, Pye Records boasted a super stable of female talent. Released hot on the heels of our recent 'Love Hit Me! Decca Beat Girls' collection, 'Scratch My Back! Pye Beat Girls' comprises two-dozen peachy selections from Pye and sister label Piccadilly's 1960s output. The compilation is titled after the opening track by Jan Panter, a Mark Wirtz-produced must-have for those who prefer their girl-pop records beefed up with a dose of fuzz guitar. Tony Hatch, the most successful of Pye's in-house producers, is represented by cherry-picked titles by the Breakaways, Petula Clark, cult favourite Sandra Barry, the Baker Twins and Julie Grant. 'Heart' has to be the rocking-est track Petula ever recorded, so much so that it was covered in the USA by garage band the Remains.
