My Girl #1 Fifty Years Ago This Week

[milven]

Nice article in my local paper this morning about MY GIRL. Leonard Pitts calls it the "most perfect song". It hit the top of the pop charts fifty years ago this week.

Another classic song that has become a part of the American Songbook.

[Philles/Motown Gary]

One of Motown's prettiest.
