Okay, I’ll bet you didn’t know what you are about to read -
INCREDIBLE…. I DIDN’T KNOW TOM HANKS FATHER WAS THE LEAD SINGER OF THE DIAMONDS WAY BACK IN 1957! THEY STILL SOUND EXACTLY THE SAME AS THEY DID!
Here are 2 Performances 47 years apart

If you were alive in 1957, and old enough to enjoy Rock and Roll, you will probably remember the group, “The Diamonds” who had just launched their super hit “Little Darlin’ “. For you that are too young to remember - it was a time when the performers were happy, enjoying themselves, respecting their fans, dressed appropriately and their lyrics could be understood. They did not feel obligated to scream, eat the microphone, mumble inaudible lyrics or trash the set.
In 1957, The Diamonds had a hit with “Little Darlin”……. 47 years later, they were requested to perform at Atlantic City ... This link leads to both performances.
Watch the first one then scroll down for the new one 47 years later.
