“May I” #39 3/15/1969

Carolina beach music is such a regional thing. It’s popular in all those coastal towns from Hilton Head up to Virginia Beach, which is where Bill Deal and the Rhondels called home. Bill was a prodigy of sorts, once placing second on Ted Mack’s Original Amateur Hour. (Think “America’s Got Talent” several generations back.) His horn-driven beach music band reached the Top 40 with this Maurice Williams tune.
