It is not often that people recall the female pop group Dusk who featured a veteran of the music biz out front on lead vocals: Peggy Santiglia, who had sung lead on “My Boyfriend’s Back,” the 1963 hit by the Angels. She had been singing on sessions in New York City for years, and was a friend of Bell Record's producer Hank Medress. Dusk were a studio girl group who were thrown together to record songs that were rejected by Tony Orlando and Dawn....
Dusk's first big hit was "I Hear Those Church Bells Ringing" in 1971 followed by "Angel Baby" and finally "Treat Me Like A Good Piece Of Candy".
By the time the latter charted Dawn were a major hit making group and the Bell label didn't promote Dusk, their stablemates, and the girls quietly faded away.
For download are all three of Dusk's hits. They are all mono. Even in 1971 they sounded dated as that was what they aimed for, they were meant to sound like the original 1963 work by the Angels...
