Jimmy Gilmer and the Fireballs had the misfortune of being on top of the pop charts with their previous record ("Sugar Shack") about the time President Kennedy was assassinated in November 1963. Then the British Invasion came to our shores, and the careers of so many American acts were altered as a result. These guys didn't have another hit until 1967. Their producer was Norman Petty, who had a hand in so many of Buddy Holly's records.
