We return to January 1964 today. The Beatles and the British Invasion had just begun to take hold over here, blowing the careers of a lot of American acts out of the water. Bobby Rydell was one of many that the sudden change in musical tastes affected, as this was the last of 19 Top 40 hits for the Philly guy. Bobby had a double organ transplant (liver and kidneys) a few years ago, but he's back doing gigs and even wrote a book about his story. He even had the high school in "Grease" named after him.
