New Horizons
The Next Phase:
The distinctive sound of The Angelettes had been all but lost, save for a few previously unreleased tracks still held by UK Records. No trace of their two Top of The Pops appearances existed owing to a fire at the BBC Archives and the Beeb's then policy of wiping some of their tapes.

2000 ............... Julie, together with her daughter Sara and Sue's daughter, Jo, recorded three original songs with some of Nashville USA's most talented session players. The ladies were already gigging together and it had not gone unnoticed that their vocal sound had a striking similarity to that of The Angelettes - not surprising, with both daughters having that uncanny familial connection. It was not totally unexpected when the trio decided to add a few Angelettes' numbers to their repertoire, spawning the idea to put the sound of the Angelettes on the road once again
2001 ............ saw UK Records release the CD "King of Hits Box set". Included in that set was the song "I Cried" recorded by The Angelettes in 1973 but remaining unreleased until then
2011 ................ the movie "Me Me Me" - premiering in London and at the Cannes Film Festival - featured "I Cried" together with the first Angelettes' single "Don't Let Him Touch You", both of which are now available on iTunes
