"Portrait Of My Love" #36 5/27/1967

The final Top 40 record for the Tokens was first done in 1960 by Matt Monro and became a hit for Steve Lawrence in 1961, the same year "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" reached #1 for these guys. Lead singer Jay Siegel sang backup on Robert John's cover of "Lion" in the early 70's. Jay and several other Tokens formed a band called Cross Country, who had a minor hit in the 70's covering "In The Midnight Hour."
