So much of what I love I owe to this woman… because I spent my early childhood listening to the impossibly sweet songs she wrote over and over and over.

Will You Love Me Tomorrow? | The Shirelles

In 1960, The Shirelles released their version as Scepter single 1211, with “Boys” on the B-side. The single’s first pressing was labelled simply “Tomorrow”, then lengthened later. When first presented with the song, lead singer Shirley Owens (later known as Shirley Alston-Reeves) did not want to record it, because she thought it was “too country.” She relented after a string arrangement was added. In 1961, the song went to number one on the Billboard Hot 100. However, Owens recalled on Jim Parsons’ syndicated oldies radio program, Shake Rattle Showtime, that some radio stations had banned the record because they had felt the lyrics were too sexually charged.

“Will You Love Me Tomorrow,” stayed at the top of the charts for three weeks. The song’s subject matter was considered racy by some in the music industry. Its chorus was a post-coitus interrogative, bringing to the surface a sensibility far more modern than many in the post-World War II era cared to acknowledge.

In mid-50s Los Angeles, the Playgirls were the in-demand session singers for such artists as Shelly Fabares, Dick Dale and Elvis Presley.


Phil Spector recorded and molded the Playgirls into his very own girl group,  the Blossoms, featuring a new lead singer, Darlene Love. They also recorded as the Crystals, and Bob B.Soxx & the Bluejeans.
