Oh, Oh Lolita

 


Tony And Paul

OH , OH LOLITA
w & m Stuart Wiener , Irving Berger & Mike Richards . Wemar Music 

Brunswick 9-55106
1958

Beatles sound-a-like from1958 when The Beatles were still The Quarrymen in Liverpool. The song was also recorded about the same time by The Cadillacs on Josie Records ("Peek-A-Boo" flip, Billboard, Oct. 27, 1958). I can't find anything on Tony and Paul, unless they were indeed The Teardrops (Tony and Paul Ciaurella) who also recorded for Josie in 1959, but this Brunswick 45 is not listed in their discographies. See :

Surely, some doo wop aficionado should be able to tell . .
