“My Girl/Hey Girl” #35 5/25/1968

The last Top 40 record for Bobby Vee was a medley of the ‘65 Temptations classic and a Freddie Scott hit from ‘63 written by Goffin and King. Bobby Velline got his start when his band filled in for Buddy Holly in Moorhead, Minn. after that tragic 1959 plane crash. One door closes and another opens. Bobby once had a keyboard player, Elston Gunnn (with three n’s), who went on to bigger things as Bob Dylan.
