The Catholic Girls New Two-CD Retrospective Set To Be Released

JSP Records is pleased to announce the release of a new two-CD retrospective set, ‘Rock N’ Roll School For Girls’, featuring one of the greatest and most enduring 1980’s all female New Wave Rock bands, The Catholic Girls. The album will be released on Friday, November 20th, 2020.

This exciting anthology covers recordings made from 1979 to 2017, including superb remixes of songs from their ground-breaking 1982 debut album ‘Catholic Girls’. It also presents 23 fully restored, previously unreleased recordings comprised of demos, alternates and five great never-before-heard songs (including the title track), as well as a compilation of 18 songs drawn from their subsequent albums. All 41 tracks are newly remixed and remastered by acclaimed audio engineer John H. Haley of Harmony Restorations LLC assisted by Vincent J. Mazella.

The detailed 20-page booklet which comes with the retrospective, provides a history of The Catholic Girls, together with numerous photos from their extensive career. In the early 1980’s, they were among the first of the all female New Wave bands who were signed by major labels, in their case, MCA, which would include such girl groups as the Go-Go’s, Bananarama and the Bangles. In a Rock music world defined by transience, The Catholic Girls have persisted, continuing to produce distinctive, original music.
