Product Description
Digitally remastered edition including bonus tracks. In 1967, The Sugar Shoppe began in Toronto as a studio project. Lead Shoppe-keeper Peter Mann teamed up with vocalist Laurie Hood and Lee Harris and London, Ontario vocalist-and future Titanic star Victor Garber. After having some success in Canada, the quartet set their sights on America and signed to Capitol Records the following year. Produced by Wrecking Crew session musician/Glen Campbell producer Al de Lory The Sugar Shoppe features a bright and breezy L.A. soft pop sound, with a hint of Psychedelia akin to the Mamas & the Papas and the 5th Dimension. Arranged by lounge legend/electronic music pioneer Mort Garson, the writer of Ruby & the Romantics' "Our Day Will Come." Also included here are mono single mixes of four songs from the album.
Customer Reviews
The Sugar Shoppe strike me in many ways as Canada's answer to The Mamas and The Papas. Although the arrangements get a little show tuney in places, at best they are just sublime and the harmonising is superb throughout. Their reworking of Bobbie Gentry's "Pappa Won't You Let me go to Town" is a wonderful 6/8 romp that could and probably should have been a world wide hit had anyone thought to promote it.
