I've been wanting to hear this song for decades. I had a "Not for sale" demo 45 that I purchased at The House of Oldies in Greenwich Village around 1966 that disappeared in the smoke-filled haze of the late 60's. Soooo good to hear it again. Thanx.
I remember Pete Chaston and Dan Guilfoyle in Rochester NY playing this on their doowop show in the 70s when I was a kid and hearing them introduce it. They said "It was a local hit in New York and Philly from 1963, and the group is the Dreamers, Because of You..." and just loved it then..
I remember the Cousins Record Store on Fordham Road in the Bronx. Used to drop in many a day when I was going to Lehman College. Remember hearing this on "The Doo Wop Shop".
Yep! I had a group called The Five Sharks and we used to hang out at Cousin's and the owner Lou Chicetti always used to play this , by the way the original Barbara Anne was recorded in the basement of Cousin's by The Regents a local Bronx group.
Eddie Black-lead/first tenor The Five Sharks great memories!!!
Actually have this single. Better to hear it online instead of having to locate it in the old milk crate downstairs. One of my favorite fast "doo wops".
I LOVE THIS !!

This version of this great classic is the best I've ever heard. uptempo, white doo wop, great lead, harmony and great falsetto. Pure gold.

@57Will I Remember Cousins very well. Was up there a few times and bought records. It was also a sports store as well, Modells I think.
