This was Billboards #1 for 2 weeks in 1959. The Farina brothers were from Brooklyn, and this was their biggest hit. Surprisingly they are virtually unknown in the US, but were fairly famous overseas. They recorded over 40 albums, most of which are covers of almost every genre. They received a Gold Record in Italy and were inducted into the Hall of Fame in Italy and had their own TV show there. At last report, Santo is semi-retired and Johnny currently tours and records new material with his own band.

Our band started playing this one after catching setzer's version and it doesnt really matter where we are or if we just played a rock or hip hop song - people will lose some energy, shuffle around a bit until two people randomly start slow dancing then fucking everybody starts slow dancing.

Its good feelings.

And I get to play the melody on my les paul and really shriek it out with some sexy reverb'd out delay.

Thanks for the post!

I have/like the saying "A song never dies until the last time it's played" so I'm glad you kept it alive. That's my passion in posting these songs and doing https://musicfor.us/.
