“Dizzy” #1 3/15/1969

Tommy Roe co-wrote his second #1 record with Freddy Weller, guitarist with Paul Revere and the Raiders at the time. The Wrecking Crew backed Tommy here, spotlighting the late, great Hal Blaine on drums. I had a whole writeup prepared about Hal and his prolific contributions to 60’s music, but he passed away last Monday (3/11/2019) at the age of 90. RIP, dude. No doubt you were the GOAT.
