January of 1957 found The Jive Bombers on the National Charts with their only Hit record "Bad Boy." This group from New Jersey featured the unique style of singing on this song from the lead singer Clarence Palmer with his yahd,yahd,yahd reverb
at the end of each chorus. Ron--Highway Stars Magazine
I have finally found it, I heard it over twenty years ago at the end of a crime story episode.Titled Ground zero, I had to rent it from netflix just to get the title to this song.Thanks to youtube and the invention of the internet I can enjoy this rare Gem again.
when this hit the airwaves, i went down town and bought every single i could find of theirs.........and i still play this monster this day.. i wonder if they got the idea for the la la la la la from Nappy Brown's big hit.

@BroncoGretsch that was "Cherry", but it was by the Jive Bombers.

both "bad boy" and "cherry" were in Cry Baby. Very similar songs by the same group.

I loved this song when it came out in the 50's. Clarence Palmer was definately underrated. I think Billy Stewart took a page out of his book.
