A previously lost track featuring Sir Ringo Starr and the late George Harrison, which was discovered in a loft, is set to be released. Girl group The Sherry Sisters put out an answer song, "Stay Away From Bobby" on the Okeh label, a considerable departure that had little to do with Marcie's hit beyond the boy's name in the title.

It was about the time of her graduation in June , that Marcie was asked by a songwriter friend to record a demo of some of his compositions. I was only supposed to go in and cut the demo and leave. How could I say no to that? I don't think I ever gave it much thought.
The first song they came up with was "Bobby's Girl". That was the first recording session. But for the time being, life went on as before, "I went away to camp that summer to be a counsellor.
