who would of ever guessed that cheech and chong would of made this song popular again by mentioning in in one of their comedy records. he would always request to the D.J. click clack by Dicky Do And the Don"ts , a record store sold a lot of oldie 45s of it in the mid west right after that... and also that is when I heard it for the first time.!!!! wow!!!!
This Swan label 45 has ranked in my top ten all time favorite records ever since it was released. It remains one of rock and roll's absolute masterpieces! Would love to see a clip of them doing this live.
GERRY DOES A GOOD JOB ON THIS ONE PERFECT!

I was not a big fan of Dickey Doo and the Don'ts but in 1960 they played at my Grammar School Prom in Westville, N.J. and they were ok!

Hells bells, haven't heard this song for 50 years. Used to be played on Radio Luxembourg on the Decca record Show. Must look up the Dell Vikings now!
Thans for this.

As a former DJ, OLDIES FREAK and RAIL-
ROAD BUFF, this song to me is an HAT
TRICK! Was 8 years old when this tune was released, 1958, my favorite year of
the fifties. I play this everyday to get me going, ON THE RIGHT TRACK!
