Hey people. I just talked to Norman Wright, a very old frined of mine from way
back. I met Norm when I was a mere child of 15 when we went to New York to
re-record Rama Lama Ding Dong for those of you who are children of the late
50's and early 60'd. Anyway, Dick Biondi who was at WHOT here in Youngstown
wanted us to go to New York as he had contacted Alan Freed who was at WKBN here
back then, and moved from Cleveland to NY. We went and did the song. While we
were waiting for the pressing, Alan came and asked if we would back up a group
becausethe studio band hadn't arrived yet, and he wanted to get the new record
pressed. We went back into the studio, where I met Norman, and Corinthian (
Cripps ) Johnson. We cut a record called "Whispering Bells", if any of you
guys recall the Del Vikings. If you hear the song played, your gonna hear
brushes at the beginning on the snare. That's me. Well, I asked Norm if they
would consider doing a benefit to help
with Doug's research. He said ok, but he'd have to check with his publicist to
when they had an open date. Norm's gonna put the word pout to see if we can get
more groups to join in. I know I can get Larry Chance from the "Earles" if I
can find him. I have Biondi's email so, I'm gonna ask him to help. Keep your
fingers crossed.
