Wonderful Tonight(s): Eric Clapton Announces '24 Nights' Box Set

She's a Rebel: Liberation Hall Brings Darlene Love's "Live 1982" to CD, DVD
When "He's a Rebel" skyrocketed to No. 1 in November 1962, America fell in love with the voice of Darlene Wright...but her name was nowhere to be found on the 45 which was instead credited to The Crystals. Ironically, it displaced Bobby "Boris" Pickett's "Monster Mash" from the top spot; Darlene and her group, The Blossoms, had provided the background vocals for that record, too. A second "Crystals" smash followed for Darlene, "He's Sure the Boy I Love," and she joined The Blossoms' Fanita
