My Aunts had this song when I was a kid and now I'm 52 years old Wow to hear it again reminds me of being a small kid at my Grandmother's house listening to my Aunts play 45's Thanks sharing song

[PJDooWop]

@SlyDawg951 - Glad to help you relive a nice memory.

[jimNEPhilly]

OMG thank you 1000 times. I had this 45 once, used to sing it by myself, and when I tried to get other guys to sing it, they said they never heard of it.

PJ, once again U B DaMan

[PJDooWop]

@jimNEPhilly - Well, now when someone says they don't know it you can send them here :)

[WoogieBoogie96]

Unique- Yes. Perhaps that's why they only had one release.

[PJDooWop]

@WoogieBoogie96 - good point

[wynonie]

@WoogieBoogie96 They had more than one release. IT ISN`T FAIR was an immediate follow-up. You have to be from South Philly to know that though.LOL

[PJDooWop]

@wynonie - It Isn't Fair is great. I don't have the 45 yet but once I do I'll post it.

[bobbya51]

Wow. Your record collection is quite impressive,and so is your generosity.Thanks.

[PJDooWop]

@bobbya51 - Thank you very much

[schcutta]

As a post script to my previous post why do you call this song strange?

[PJDooWop]

@schcutta - Maybe unique would be a better word.. I think the choice of instrumention and the abrupt chord changes are a bit strange but I like the record very much

[schcutta]

Great song PJ. I remember as a kid trying to get a copy of this song after hearing it on the radio to no avail. I did not know the name of the title or who the recording artist was. Now some 50yrs. later I get to hear it and get the info on the artist as well. Many thanks PJ. As I've told you before you never cease to amaze me. Thanks again, Rob

[johntorrington]

Nothing strange about this. I quite like it, but I've been called strange before.

@johntorrington - lol
