West coast writer / producer George Semper recorded four sides on the Sherilles - a group led by Vessie Simmons, who had been lead singer for the Ribbons in the early 60s. She would go on to have a prolific solo career in the 70s, right through to the 90s. Ace sleuth Alec Palao found four Semper-produced sides on two DCT acetates and we licensed the rights from the Semper family. These fully realised recordings are from 1968 when the group had to swiftly change their name from the attempted one of the Shirelles - which they had hoped to get away with, and presumably cash in on that outfit's fame. A court injunction put paid to that plan and though the name change was only slight, it was never tested in court, as the tracks were never issued. 'Nobody's Gonna Love You' is an excellent George Semper song and judging by the 100 Club's audience reaction to recent plays will become a staple of forward-thinking club's playlists. 'Make It On My Own' is in the same groove and not far short of the A side. Vessie would re-write and re- record it in 1975 as 'I Can Make It On My Own' for a solo release on her Simco label.
