Although the four women's arrangements owed more to the Andrews Sisters than doo wop, they did, unlike many of their peers, prove fairly adaptable to the rock era. First establishing themselves with the huge (and non-rock) pop hit "Mr. Sandman" in 1954, they continued to chart in the last half of the 1950s and the early 1960s, often with covers of rock and R&B songs. The #2 1958 hit "Lollipop" was the biggest of these. Although the group sound (at least in retrospect) among the Whitest and squarest of rock artists, they introduced enough rock into their repertoire and production to sound more contemporary than they had on discs such as "Mr. Sandman." Jinny Osborn was exposed to harmony singing via her father, who was president of "The Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barbershop Quartet Singing in America Inc." She formed the quartet with three college friends, and they became regulars on Arthur Godfrey's television show for four years in 1949, singing a cappella in the barbershop style, and recording for Columbia. Godfrey's musical director, Archie Bleyer, married the Chordettes' bass singer, Janet Ertel, around the same time .... + Informações

This pretty female vocal quartet from Sheboygan, Wisconsin epitomized the fun-loving sound of the '50's. Starting with their 1954 mega-hit "Mr. Sandman", The Chordettes found a way to mix a 1940's Andrews Sisters-sound with a tinge of 1950's rock and roll. "Lollipop" was one of their biggest hits, peaking at #2 in the nation during March of 1958.. + Informações

"Never on Sunday" was written by Manos Hadjidakis originally in Greek with the title "Ta Paidia tou Peiraia" (The children of Piraeus) for the 1960 film of the same name starring Melina Mercouri who played a prostitute. The song won the Academy Award for Best Original Song. "Never On Sunday" has been popularly recorded several times, but its best selling version came the following summer in 1961 when The Chordettes took a turn with it, and this would be this fabulous vocal group's last chart entry peaking at #13.. + Informações
