    The Blossoms

    The Blossoms were tight vocally. Here are the ladies with Carolyn Willis of Honey Cone standing in for Jean King.

    I've seen most of these Blossoms' clips. i had forgotten Jean King and Fanita James sang occasional leads and had solo spots on Shindig.

    I am trying to figure out who wrote the song "Just Remember" sung by The Blossoms [[lead by Jean King) on their 1972 Lion [[MGM) album, SHOCKWAVE. If someone would help me out with this, I would be grateful! I've figured out everything but that song and can't find any further info on the web! THANKS!

    Jean King

    Jean King did a solo lp on the Hanna-Barbara label back around '66. It had a great
    cover and she did cover versions of several Motown songs on this lp.

    Chestersong, I am not 100% sure about the leads [[who's singing what) but I know that all three ladies are supposed to have taken turns on the Shockwave LP. I was fixing the info tagging of the album in my iTunes last night and my Google searches stumbled when it came to that one last song. I'm not sure if the song is a cover version/standard or an original. If I have a chance to listen to the entire album, I'll try to figure out who's singing what and post again here.

    Anyone else know who wrote "Just Remember"?
