A MOMENT AGO, The Angels, ( Caprice, 107) 1961

A MOMENT AGO, The Angels, (Caprice, 107) 1961 Flipside: TIL Here is another really great ballad from my music collection. The Angels (The Jersey Girls) formed in 1961 and hailed from Orange, New Jersey. They were sisters Barbara and Phyllis ( Jiggs ) Allbut and Linda Jansen. Linda Jansen sang lead on this upload of A MOMENT AGO, TIL and CRY BABY CRY, (Caprice, 112), 1962 (their earlier recordings). In 1962 Linda Jansen left for a solo career. Peggy Santiglia joined the group as their new lead singer. That gave them a little different sound. The Angels had 6 songs charted nationally on Billboard. Their biggest, MY BOYFRIEND S BACK, charted in September, 1963 for 14 weeks and reached, 1. It stayed, 1 for 3 weeks It was a monster hit for them. In 1963 I was 19 years old and was already well known for my record collection. Jerry Davis, promoter, producer and manager of another NJ group, The Critters, asked me to spin records at the dances he was sponsoring at
