B-side of their debut 45 and 78 “59 Buick,” a summer of 1954 release. The song features some masterful gibberish from the Los Angeles-based group’s lead singer (and talker) Vernon Green. At the time he wrote and recorded the song he was a 14-year-old runaway who walked with the aid of crutches: “Let me whisper sweet words of pismotality and discuss the puppetutes of love”
