GOOD NIGHT MY LOVE
A Greatest Hits or Best of package is what most people buy when they look for a Fleetwoods album, and that is what I did in the beginning also. The danger is that the hits often show only one side of a band; in this case, most people would assume that all of the music by the Fleetwoods features Gary Troxel on lead and the women singing back up. Not so – an album that I picked up recently, Good Night My Love (1963) shows that Gretchen Christopher and Barbara Ellis also perform flawlessly on lead vocals.
