Doo-wop's last stand atop the charts in the summer of 1963---a memorable one for me at the Jersey Shore--just before the wave of Beatlemania washed over all.
The Tymes had an early disco hit "You Little Trustmaker"
The flip side of that '45 was their "Carolinas Beach Music" classic, and one of my faves, "Ms Grace"
im not familiar with this original.....only the Peaches & Herb version....thanks for posting
Originally written in French in 1955. Translated by the Everly Brothers.
Back in the day as they say, I went submarine race watching with Murray the K's Swinging Soiree on 1010 WINS in NYC. He later commandeered the Beatles when they first came over, to the point that he called himself "the fifth Beatle." By the way, I saw the Beatles the first time they strapped on geetars in the USA: the full dress rehearsal of the first Ed Sullivan, just a few hours before the show went live.
Later on, I swore by Don K. Reed's Sunday evening show The Doo-Wop Shop on WCBS-FM. Could never get enough.
