#fank #vinyl #pop #soul #60s Sheila Burgel has spent most of her life in the dusty old record shops of New York, London, Paris, and Tokyo, in an attempt to own every ’60s girl-pop 45 in existence. She has worked as an artist manager, writer and editor at progressive girl culture magazine BUST, head of A&R for UK production house Xenomania, columnist for MTV Japan, DJ, and music supervisor. She has produced and written the liner notes for several compilations including Rhino Records’ Grammy nominated One Kiss Can Lead to Another: Girl Group Sounds Lost & Found box set and Ace Records/ Big Beat’s ’60s Japanese girl-pop compilation series, Nippon Girls. She currently runs her fanzine-turned-web-magazine, ChaChaCharming.com, and hosts radio show “Sophisticated Boom Boom” on WFMU, the longest running freeform radio station in the US.
