good questions about charting.
That’s why I include Frankie Lyman and The Teenagers.
They didn’t do squat after “Why Do Fools Fall in Love”
Here is the Heartbeats - Thousand Miles Away
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIqqWC_1bkQ
charted at about 50 something.
The lead singer James Shep Shepard leaves the Heartbeats and starts:
Shep & The Limelites - Daddy’s Home
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIGla91-qmk
charted 2.
each is a 1 hit wonder though it’s the lead singer that makes these a go.
Oh, Baby, Don't (1956)
