I heard an album today that sounded like Patti Smith covering girl group songs. I know for sure that one was "Heaven Only Knows" by the Shangri-Las. Does anyone know what this album might have been?

Almost definitely not what you mean, but Redd Kross did a pretty great "Heaven Only Knows" that could conceivably be mistaken for Patti Smith covering girl groups maybe.

Mary Weiss of the Shangri-Las covered "Heaven Only Knows" on her 2007 comeback album Dangerous Game. Not on YouTube unfortunately.

'Teen Babes From Monsanto' = best covers mini-album ever.

Oh wow it's actually the Mary Weiss comeback album. I think it's great!
