Love those old Mala/Amy/Bell records! I'm a serious collector of them. Bob Crewe certainly did his best to capitalise not only on the name "Ragdoll", but--on the ear-piercing high notes for which Frankie Valli was known. Thanks for yet another scarce item for my checklist!.
@jkeyes: ear-piercing, lol. This thing's right up there with Diane Renay's "I Had a Dream," and I mean that in the best possible way! Thanks for the music, the video, and the history lesson, Anthony. And by the way, I keep forgetting to mention how awesome it is that you use appropriate company sleeves whenever possible. (Yet another) nice touch.
I like it. It does indeed sound like Bob Crewe was hoping to make a successful female version of The Four Seasons, especially with those backing harmonies.
It has "Bob Crewe" stamped all over it, and in 1965 it didn't get any better than that!
Great companion single to their monster classic Dusty on Mala.

If this song is any indication...should be Cheesy Records...still...I'm going to give them a try and see what happens...
kind of confused where is the Strangeloves connection
