Few groups are as synonymous with the Carolina Beach Music scene as The Tams, and they continue today to entertain live (albeit with not all of the original members). Joe Pope is the lead voice you hear on this and most of the Tams early recordings, and although "Hey Girl, Don't Bother Me", released in early 1964 didn't quite make the national Top 40 in the U.S., it went all they way to #1 in Great Britain, and did so in 1971, seven years after its original release.

The original was recorded in mono - you can tell by the phase effect that this has been put though some machine to try and recreate something that never happened!!

Great song from a great era, thanks for all the wonderful memories guys.

It was played at the Twisted Wheel and got a release due to it's popularity on the Northern Soul scene.

One of my all-time favorite Tams tunes... Joe Pope and his gravelly voice are certainly missed but the current Tams still put on a magnificent show. BEACH MUSIC FOREVER!
