The Lollipops

Soul group from Detroit managed by Duke Browner. Members: Arenita Walker her sister Joyce Walker and Angela Allen. The Lollipops who released only two (known) singles, the first in 1966 on Harry Balk's Impact label which only ran from 1965-67 until it was bought, along with Balk's other label Inferno, by Motown. The A side 'Loving Good Feeling' was written by Duke Browner and is a storming Northern Soul tune. The mid-tempo flip side 'Step Aside Baby' was written by Walker. Their next release was on Motown's V.I.P. imprint in 1969. Curiously it was scheduled for release in July 1969 on Gordy G-7089, and demos exist of it, but it wasn't released on Gordy and was subsequently issued on V.I.P. in Nov. 1969. The top side 'Cheating, Is Telling On You' was co-written by Browner & Walker,
