Everybody thought doo-wop died out a few years earlier. Probably the last gasp for this style of music came from the Casinos, a one-hit, nine-man group from Cincinnati. It was first done in 1962 by Don Cherry, who had a few 50's pop hits and later became a pro golfer with a fiery temper. Written by John D. Loudermilk, who probably was best known for writing "Indian Reservation," a #1 hit in 1971 for the Raiders - Paul Revere's name wasn't out in front by that point.
