the Bobbi-Pins
Chillicothe, 1962-4
The Bobbi-Pins were a vocal group of five girl students at Chillicothe High School. The group included Linda Brown, Candy Brown, Mary Ragland, Sherrie Ragland, and Cheri Rickman. Through some means they connected with Redda Robbins (possibly through meeting her at a live performance) and Robbins used her Philadephia connections to have them record a couple 45s for Mercury records using the Madara-White production team. The 45s have a strong girl group sound. The group (Candy and Linda Brown) co-wrote the songs.
Candy Brown is deceased.
