Back on the March 5, 1965, WLS Survey, there was a song called "Whenever a Teenager cries" by a group called Reparata & the Delrons at #18. I'd never heard of the song and then there was that strange name for a group. I first listened to it on You Tube. As good of a Girl Group song from back then as you can get.
The comment on it said it was recorded in 1964 and charted to #60 on the Billboard Hot 100 in January 1965. It was released Dec. 1964. "This is one of the great girl group classics, and likely would have been a much bigger hit had it not come along after the British Invasion. Reparata & the Delrons are my favorite girl groups."
Some other songs by them on You Tube: "Bye Bye baby" and "I'm Nobody's Baby Now."
My comment: "grows on you. All that teenage girl angst. Please curb your estrogen, ladies. Three white girls in a classic Girl Group song.

Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
