Shangri-las had three top ten hits, [Bb] enjoyed their success, broke up and went their separate ways.
20 years later, they're angry.
Three other Shangri-las are on the road singing their songs,
hits such as Leader of the Pack.
The Shangri-las are going to court,
and Garrett Glazer has today's Inside Story.
Oh [Db] no, [Bbm] oh no, [A] oh [Bbm] no, no, no, no, no.
Those were the Shangri-las in the 1960s.
Teenagers singing [Ab] classic teen hits about
bad boys and [Bb] broken dreams.
But they never registered their name, and so now,
these Shangri-las are using it.
They don't look the same, they don't sound the same,
they're not the same.
[G] But for now anyway, they [Bb] are the Shangri-las.
[C] [Bb] [G] The girl [Bb] group that gave us Leader of the Pack in the 60s is now actually leading the pack in
the 80s, for the Shangri-las have taken it upon themselves to fight in court those people who
would use their good name [Cm] to make money.
[Bb] They are suing producer Richard Fox.
It's Fox who's selling the services of the new Shangri-las.
I researched the name [Gb] in Washington.
[A] Nobody [Fm] owned that name.
[G] Nobody had owned that name.
[Bb] I don't even know if they really [F] ever even owned the name then,
[Ab] but it hadn't been used for so many years, and I just registered the name.
I own the name.
Today, the original Shangri-las say not so, and anyway, that's not the point.
Why should you have to when you [C] are who you are?
We are famous.
We were and we still are.
Why do you [Bb] have to go out and trademark who you are?
Because if you don't, someone just may borrow your name, and all that goes with it.
You can see that in this home video of the new Shangri-las performing at a charity benefit.
Are you familiar with our music and our records?
They're very dramatic [Em] type of songs.
[G] This is it all right there.
Familiar with our [E] music, [B] our song.
[Bb]
[Bb] What's your reaction?
That [B] is great.
Piracy.
That [Cm] is such a
We worked so hard [Bb] for what we went on the road for, [Gm] you know, what we did the [Bbm] one-nighters for
and stayed in the lousy hotel rooms.
I saw a tape of the Shangri [Ab]-las.
They were making like they
were the [G] original ones, [Gb] and the audience didn't buy it.
A tape?
A video tape?
Yeah, and the audience
[Bbm] didn't buy it [Eb] because they were too young.
I don't
[Bb] That's specifically why I made them young
[A] so they wouldn't
People [Bb] wouldn't think that they were that group, and one of my girls said
[Gb] one of our original hits.
The next song was Bring Daddy a Ball for Us, and it was our first number
one record.
Fox says if the originals want to work again, that [Em] would be a different story.
[Bb] They want
to have nothing to do with this business, nothing to do with the name, nothing to do with anything,
[G] but yet they want to sit there and say, you can't use that name.
[Bb] You can't just do that.
Why?
Because
you don't want me to?
You gotta have better reasons than that, but if they decide, they came
to me and they said, Dick, we want to come [D] back and we want to do it.
[Bb] You got it.
In a minute.
The
Shangri-las say they were ripped off then, and they're being ripped off now.
We're not teenagers
anymore, and [Gm] we don't have to [Bb] take it, and we're not taking it.
And what about people like Fran
and Joe Canfield of Hackettstown, New Jersey?
They contacted the R.E.K. Mars Talent Agency looking for
an original oldies group.
The big night [Bbm] comes, they show up.
What'd you think?
[Eb]
[Ab] Reviving [Bb] rock and roll
from the 50s and 60s is big business today, and some people think the fight over the Shangri-las
[B] name is really a battle for all the people who made the music in the first place.
Why should
[Bb] three individuals today live off of the [F] work product and the [G] reputation of people who were
really [Gb] the pioneers of rock and roll, who [Gm] really had the [Bb] hits 25 [Cm] years ago?
A federal judge in New
York has ordered the new Shangri-las to [Bb] stop using the name until the fight is settled.
Meanwhile, the original Shangri-las told us today they will make a comeback at a reunion
show this summer.
