      That's them in the picture that heads up this group. I wonder if everyone knows that Mary Weiss, lead singer, did an album a few years ago, called "Dangerous Game," backed by Reigning Sound, and it's really good. Mary performs occasionally, I saw her in Hoboken (NJ) 3 years ago, and had the pleasure of meeting her. She's a real sweetheart.

      At a yard sale, I found an old Cashbox newspaper with the Shangri-Las on the cover, and sent a scan to her. She was excited to see it, and told me that over the years, she's lost all of her memorabilia. So I sent it to her. If anyone has anything like this that they'd be willing to part with, Mary would love to have it, she's on Facebook.

      I saw Mary a few years ago , she looked and sounded amazing. The album on Norton ROCKS. Not taking away from her past glories , but it's a greatĀ setting to hear her in.....One can only imagine , the unfinished Shangri - La's reunion album on Sire Records , at the height of East Coast Punk and Power Pop , might have sounded something like this.....

      I asked her about a follow up, she said she wanted to, but nothing was definite. That was a while ago. You could ask her on Facebook.

      Dangerous game is the sound of a Shangri-la grown up, do you know if she has any plans for s follow up?

      The Shangri-las are my favourite girl band of that era and Mary has the most sexy speaking voice on record, just listen to past, present and future!
