I remember hearing my dad sing this song when I was a kid....And I just realized that I ride a hopped up cycle and wear black denim trousers and motorcycle boots....I even wear a black leather jacket with an eagle on the back.....LOL.

Bert Convy was born Bernard Whalen Costello -- it was not just the Jews that had to change their names.

[ChihuahuaboyDH]

Actor, entertainer, & later game show host Bert Convy was a member of The Cheers. This single charted in Billboard at a fairly high position, I believe. From 1955!

Great song! R.I.P. Bert Convy...July 23rd, 1933 - July 15th, 1991. You are beloved & are missed to this very day.

[FoxRunMan]

I remember hearing this in 1955 when I was 11 years old. I thought it was the coolest thing I had ever heard. LOL

[LightningChimp]

This is cool. You can hear the stage being set for rock & roll. The drumming is quite interesting.

[MikeBlitzMag]

The Wynton Marsalis Quintet covered this on a live CD, released in 2010. Go figure.

[Opethfan79]

Anyone who wants this song. You can find it on Itunes on a cd called shut down. My father had the record and I found it on itunes not to long ago. This is one of the songs I loved from it.

[sweetusamom1979]

any idea how i can get a copy of this song?

[VinylNostalgia]

@sweetusamom1979 - Search on ebay or in local record shops.

[jityr2]

@VinylNostalgia  Have you ever heard of SOPA, PIPA, and ACTA? They're trying to stop us from putting up these kind of videos. Let's not let them get away with it.

[Freyja1133]

@sweetusamom1979 you can get it from amazon.com as a mp3 download for,99 cents

[Opethfan79]

@sweetusamom1979 I know it is on itunes under a compilation record called Shut Down. There are a bunch of great songs on it.

[SollTrawyer]

@sweetusamom1979 Got one in the compliation "la boîte noire - Radio Nova".

[amusia111]

yes, I think they were the first.

[garywayne1966]

I have a copy of this 45. It hangs up somewhere in the middle of playing it. Luckily I have the Shut Down album from 1963 (Capitol #T-1918), which is flawless. I have already burned the album to a CD-R, and have downloaded it to my computer. They also did the tune called Chicken, which is also included on the Shut Down album as well.

[Noelepops]

Yes they are and if you read the article you will see that they recorded it in September 1955. I was 14 years old.

[accordeonsteve]

Thank you for that recording. Are they the first group who sang that song?
