“What Kind Of Fool (Do You Think I Am)” (Bill Deal) #23 9/20/1969

The third chart record for Bill Deal and the Rhondels was, like their previous “I’ve Been Hurt,” written by Ray Whitley. This was a Top 10 hit in early 1964 for the Tams just as Beatlemania was arriving on our shores. The Bill Deal version was that band’s biggest single and a great example of Carolina beach music.
