"The girl group sound made famous and unforgettable by acts like The Ronettes, The Shirelles, The Supremes, and The Vandellas took over the airwaves by capturing the mix of innocence and rebellion emblematic of America in the 1960s. As songs like "Will You Love Me Tomorrow," "Then He Kissed Me," and "Be My Baby" rose to the top of the charts, girl groups cornered the burgeoning post-war market of teenage rock and roll fans, indelibly shaping the trajectory of pop music in the process. While the songs are essential to the American canon, many of the artists remain all but anonymous to most listeners. Featuring more than one hundred interviews with those who made the music, from singers and songwriters to their agents, managers, and sound engineers--and even to the present-day celebrities inspired by their lasing influence--But Will You Love Me Tomorrow: An Oral History of the '60s Girl Groups tells a national coming-of-age story that shines particular insight into the experiences of the female singers and songwriters who created the movement and changed American culture."-- Publisher.
