Recensie

Waar de herinnering aan de Britse popmuziek uit de jaren zestig wordt gedomineerd door mannenstemmen zijn de samenstellers van Am I Dreaming er moeiteloos in geslaagd maar liefst drie cd's te vullen met toffe vrouwen waarvan namen als Dusty Springfield, Marianne Faithful, Lulu, Christine Perfect (McVie) en Sandie Shaw natuurlijk een plek in de geschiedenisboeken hebben, maar waarvan vele andere onterecht in de vergetelheid zijn geraakt. Am I Dreaming vormt het slotstuk van de befaamde Dream Girlsserie, waarvan tussen 1994 en 2007 acht delen verschenen. Inclusief informatief boekje, diverse tracks die niet eerder op cd verschenen en zelfs vijf helemaal niet eerder uitgebrachte liedjes. Een echte goudmijn.

DESCRIPTION

TRACKLIST

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
• One of RPM Records defining releases remains the Dream Babes series , the Brit Girl Sound collections which started in 1994 and ran until 2007 reaching volume 8. The scene for collecting such sounds has only grown bigger and more international since then. Now it is time for RPM’s concluding word on the subject of its own series with this 3CD box set.

• 80 tracks, none duplicated from the DB series, many tracks fresh to CD, five tracks previously unreleased. Compiled with much learned, many archive tapes unearthed, and recordings dug from crates since the series last volume.

• The booklet contains an important essay on the whole scene’s history from one who was there at the start in the early 1980s. Ian Chapman gives chapter and verse on how the scene developed and the stages it took to reach where we are today.

• We further have a piece from Bob Stanley and his take on the scene, including working with some of the artists. It was Bob who, in 1994, came to RPM with the idea of a compilation which became Volume 1 – Am I Dreaming.

• All lovingly put together by major contributor to the series and scene, Michael Robson. Thus the booklet contains many rare pics and background information about the 80 strong track listing from Michael’s extensive archive.

• Spanning the full spectrum of the scene, known for its gratifying diversity, the box set offers slick originals and intriguing covers, from early girls to late girls, beat girls, folk girls, hippy girls and mod girls. Here, you’ll also find the brash teeners, the raw belters, the wistful balladeers, the brassy pub singers, the breathy harmonisers and the bluesy shouters. There are Essex girls, lasses from Lancashire, Glasgwegians and hey there Geordie girls, Chelsea debs and daughters of Cardiff and Coventry, Stoke and Southend. The Commonwealth gets a nod too, with Kiwi gals and Caribbean queens. Not forgetting Schoolgirls and secretaries, convent girls and actresses, daughters of diplomats, god-daughters of royalty and stars before they were stars.

• Fair to say no box has been left unticked on the ‘Am I Dreaming?’ Brit Girl box…
