Description: (Book). 1963 tail fins were in, sock hops were hot, and a fairytale white knight was president. That summer, sixteen year-old singer Lesley Gore released her debut single, Its My Party, propelling her to Number One on the charts. For the next several years, the crowned Princess of Pop dominated the radio with a string of hits including Judys Turn to Cry, Shes A Fool, Sunshine, Lollipops & Rainbows, and the rousing anthem for independence, You Dont Own Me, making her the most successful and influential solo female artist of the 60s. But beneath the bubblegum facade was a girl squirming against social and professional pressures to simply be herself and to forge a future where she could write and perform music beyond the trappings of teenage angst and love triangles. Assembled over five years of research and interviews, this is the first and long overdue biography of Lesley Gore, one of pop musics pioneering Mothers, which chronicles her meteoric rise to fame, her devastating fall from popularity and struggle for relevance in the 1970s, and her reemergence as a powerful songwriter, political activist, and camp icon. The biography includes behind-the-scenes stories about the making of her hit records, debunks or clarifies popular myths about her career, and places her remarkable life and times within a historical context to reveal how her music was both impacted by, and contributed to, each decade of her astounding fifty-year career.

to a lifelong real fan such as me, and not a curious reader of 60s nostalgia, the book is disappointing.and the information about the author says it all. he is a youngster, and did not live in the 60s. so his knowledge is that of a researcher and interviewer, not as being there.one can listen to all the music, all the cds, it is not the same as a teenager with a crush on the voice and the pictures on the record sleeve, and on the washed-out b&w images on shindig et al we experienced growing up in the 60s.albeit a fan (a retrospective one), he was not there.sorry trevor.as a lifelong fan, there are some bits of information that were news to me. so those were useful.but i kept bumping into things like bundling Lesley into the girl group fad and comparing her with other contemporary singers.after the first couple of these questionable statements i couldnt help but feeling skeptical as i read on.he did have the patience to give us a full discography, so he gets credit for that.he failed to grasp that Lesley was more than a girl singer putting out hit songs on our radios.she was a superb singer that sang with feeling and passion. on every single track you can hear the effort and professionalism put into the recording, on all tracks, not just the hit singles. besides the records, i have the bear cd collection and the quality of the recordings and her voice are simply amazing.there was something indescribable about Lesley that came through her records. as if we knew her, like a schoolmate or neighborhood friend.and you know something? i still feel it today, even after all these years!to me, she made , not the other way around.it was her and the genius arranger/orchestrator that recorded those masterpieces.and a more beautiful teen idol there was not.my hope is that her brother michael will write a proper biography of what is one of the greatest all-time singers there ever lived.since her family is very private and that chance seems slim, i guess trevor is all we get.
