I have found about 8 songs by the 4 Graduates (Happenings). Most of them are amazing. One of the best is Your Initials on you tube.

@Howieshet Thanks for the tip-off, a nice song.

Indeed, the Four Graduates released two 45s on the Rust label: this one in 1963 and "Candy Queen" in 1964.

Later, in 1966, the group (from Paterson, N.J.) began recording for the B.T. Puppy label, on which they had such big hits as "See You In September" and "I Got Rhythm" (in Four Seasons "style").

Thanks, didn't know they did a version of "See You In September'.

Not only did The Happenings record a version of "See You In September," they took it to the No. 3 spot on the national (Billboard) charts in the summer of 1966.

The Tempos reached No. 23 with a slower version of the same song in 1959.

The Tempos version is one of my favourite songs!

This is very nice version of this song. I only wish Bobby Miranda would have re-recorded it with less of a screeching quality at the song`s end. Otherwise this would earn a great rating!

[SirBasildeBrush]

Thanks, that I didn't know.

The Four Graduates would go on to greater fame later in the 1960s as the Happenings.
