The #Shangri-Las are one of those extraordinary bands. The absolute goddesses of #rocker culture. At the end of the 1960s, #mainstream #culture and #hippies had taken over #music, and even rockers suddenly became like Easy Rider with long hair in the western United States. It wasn't until 1977, with the advent of #punk rock, that this culture returned, and with a bang.
The Shangri-Las only had one reunion after their split in 1968, and that was TATATA... in 1977 at #CBGB's together with the #Ramones, #Blondie, and the Dead Boys. There's a story that Patty Smith and Mary Weiss gave each other autographs because they were such big fans of each other.
