   About Mary Weiss of the Shangri-Las
 
MARY WEISS, lead singer of the Shangri-Las, is recording her first album of new material since 1965 with the Reigning Sound for release on Norton Records, with Billy Miller and Greg Cartwright producing. Mary is selecting from a batch of great new comps from today’s most talked-about songwriters including Greg Cartwright, John Felice, Andy Shernoff, Jackie DeShannon and others TBA!
Mary was fifteen years old when she and her sister Elizabeth (Betty) began singing with identical twins Margie and Mary Ann Ganser in their Cambria Heights neighborhood of Queens, New York, as students at Andrew Jackson High School. They soon came to the attention of George "Shadow" Morton and shot into the charts with massive hits on the Red Bird label including Remember (Walking In The Sand), Leader Of The Pack, Give Him A Great Big Kiss, I Can Never Go Home Anymore, Give Us Your Blessings and Out In The Streets.
The Shangri-Las gave a voice to real teenagers, with Mary’s explosive lead vocals delivering emotion-packed melodramas that made them one of the most consistently exciting groups of the day.

the last song on dangerous game - you can stay with me - it is such a fantastic song - and then at the very end of the album - after that song - is that a sound bite from the beach sounds of remember walking in the sand? that is so neat (o:
