NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT INTENDED - ( Parlophone 5431) Out of Britain, this 1966 release is one of seven singles issued by this trio of impeccably coiffed song birds between 1965 -1968. The Keith Mansfield & David Gold composed 'I Think Of You' along with the flipside, 'Please Don't Kiss Me' were performed by the Chantelles in the rock & roll B-movie, 'Dateline Diamonds'.

This girl group originally formed in 1958 as The LANA SISTERS. Led by Iris 'Riss' Long with Lynne Abrams and Mary O'Brien, for two years the group performed regularly at live shows and on television while releasing several singles on the UK Fontana label before the disbanding in 1960. Mary O'Brien changed her name to Dusty Springfield, joined her brother Tom and Reshad Feild and later Mike Hurst performing as the Springfields before she embarked on her own successful solo career.

Riss Long (aka Riss Lana & Riss Chantelle) fronted the Chantelles in 1965 along with Sandra Orr and Jay Adams and after the groups run ended in 1968, she retired from the performing aspect of the music business to devote her talents to the publishing side.
