Frankie Lymon - I`m not a juvenile delinquent. From the 1956Rock and Roll movie: Rock Rock Rock. Here`sa film that is reminiscent of Grease but ten times more authentic, almost a musical documentary of the Fabulous 50`s, the nostalgic era of black leather jackets, poodle skirts, rah-rah cheerleaders and prom Queens. The film was made at the height of Alan Freed`s career, shortly before his spectacular downfall as a result of the disc jockey payola scandal. The authentic Rock and Roll, Rock-a-Billy, Doo wop and Big Beat sound from the 50`s makes this film such an Oldie but goodie. Rock Rock Rock. Also known as: El rey del Rock and Roll Release date: 07 December 1956. + Informações

LISTEN LIVE to RadioCarino - audiorealm.com Franklin Joseph "Frankie" Lymon (September 30, 1942 -- February 27, 1968) was an American rock and roll/rhythm and blues singer and songwriter, best known as the boy soprano lead singer of a New York City-based early rock and roll group, The Teenagers. The group was composed of five boys, all in their early to mid teens. The original lineup of the Teenagers, an integrated group, included three African American members, Frankie Lymon, Jimmy Merchant and Sherman Garnes, and two Puerto Rican members, Herman Santiago and Joe Negroni. The Teenagers' first single, 1956's "Why Do Fools Fall in Love", was also their biggest hit. After Lymon went solo in mid-1957, both his career and those of the Teenagers fell into decline. At age 25, he was found dead in his grandmother's bathroom from a heroin overdose.[1] His life inspired the 1998 film, Why Do Fools Fall In Love?.. + Informações

The Teenagers are an American integrated doo wop group, most noted for being one of rock music's earliest successes, presented to international audiences by DJ Alan Freed. The group, which made its most popular recordings with young Frankie Lymon as lead singer, is also noted for being rock's first all-teenaged act. The Teenagers had their origins in The Earth Angels, a group founded at Edward W. Stitt Junior High School in the Washington Heights section of Manhattan by second tenor Jimmy Merchant and bass Sherman Garnes. Eventually, Garnes and Merchant had added lead singer Herman Santiago and baritone Joe Negroni to their lineup and evolved into The Coupe De Villes. In 1955, thirteen-year-old Frankie Lymon joined the Coupe De Villes, who changed their name to first the Ermines and later The Premiers. The same year Lymon joined the group, he helped Santiago and Merchant rewrite a song they'd composed to create "Why Do Fools Fall In Love". The song got the Teenagers an audition with George Goldner's Gee Records, but Santiago was too sick to sing lead on the day of the audition. Lymon sung the lead on "Why Do Fools Fall in Love" instead, and the group was signed to Gee as The Teenagers, with Lymon as lead singer. "Why Do Fools Fall in Love" was The Teenagers first and biggest hit. The group, known for both their harmony and choreography, also had hits with "I'm Not a Juvenile Delinquent" and "The ABCs of Love". By 1957, the group was being billed as "Frankie Lymon and the .... + Informações
