Women & Songs: 60s Girl Groups is a special album in the Women & Songs franchise. It was released with Women & Songs: The 80s one week before the official sixth album in the collection.

Overview

12 girl groups of the 1960s era were featured on this disc. The popular Dixie Cups tune "Chapel of Love" introduces things, while The Chiffons feature with "He's So Fine". "The Loco-Motion" also appears courtesy of Little Eva, and "A Lover's Concerto" finishes things off care of The Toys.

Since songs performed in the 1960s, in general, tend to be shorter than songs produced since the 1980s, this is the shortest CD in terms of playing time in the entire Women & Songs franchise.
