I always got a kick out of the Coasters. Little Egypt, Along Came Jones, Yakkety-Yack, etc.

The Coasters were big in my house too. "Charlie Brown" was played a lot. My oldest sister loved Bill Haley and the Comets, Della Reese, and the Platters. My second oldest sister was a big Santo and Johnny, and Pat Boone fan. She and I had to get white bucks because they were the rage. Also a big hit in our house was "Get a Job" by the Silhouettes (1957).

The Hollywood Argyles released "Alley Oop" in 1960:

Alley Oop

Also this one from 1958:

One Eyed one Horned Flying Purple People Eater
