Norman Fox & The Rob Roys- Pizza Pie

  • il y a 16 ans
The group formed in New York around 1957 and were one of the few interracial groups recording at this time. The group takes its name from the Rob Roy cocktail. The members of the group were John Charlton, Bob Trotman, Andre Lilly, Robert Thierer and Marshall "Buzzy" Helfand.

The group signed to the Backbeat label, a subsidiary of Duke/Peacock Records, in 1957, and recorded three singles, generally upbeat doo-wop tracks: "Tell Me Why", "Lover Doll", and "Dance Girl Dance".

As Duke/Peacock was primarily a rhythm & blues label, the group then signed to Capitol Records, and one single was issued, "Pizza Pie", but the group did not achieve significant success.
