Album Notes & Community Reviews

Navigating the transition from teenage melodrama to a more sophisticated pop-soul sound, 'Girl Talk' pairs Lesley Gore's strong, emotive vocals with immaculate Brill Building songcraft. The album highlights her continued artistic maturation and features the iconic feminist anthem 'Maybe I Know'. It is a masterfully produced, highly enduring statement of mid-sixties female pop.
