They were forced to change their name to the Chordcats. homes.) The band was knocked when it learned there was a more-obscure group already using the name The Chords. Stan Freberg (in)famously parodied the piece, with Freberg inveighing the singers to "Mumble. Some were memorable and some otherwise, including a countrified take by the Billy Williams Quartet for Coral, and more notably the Crew-Cuts' version for Mercury. Soon there were cover versions hitting radio stations across the country simultaneously with the Chords' original single. The songwriters were deluged by music publishing companies wanting to buy the rights to "Sh-Boom" in order to reap huge potential earnings (the group quickly came to an agreement with Hill & Range). Peter Potter, host of TV's popular "Juke Box Jury", was seemingly aghast at the state of this then-new trend in pop music and attacked "Sh-Boom" asking if anyone would remember the admittedly demented ditty in five, let alone 20 years time and whether any record label would even think to re-release it in the future. Not everyone thought the song was a precursor of good things to come. For all practical purposes - along with The Crows' 1954 hit "Gee" (another upbeat B-side hit that DJs flipped over) - "Sh-Boom" introduced the white audience to black R&B music for the first time. However the words ("Yadda da da yadda da da da da da") were never sung in the original version by the Chords.īy the end of June 1954, "Sh-Boom" had climbed up the charts nationwide, charting on both the R&B (number three) and pop (number nine) lists, a nearly unprecedented feat for its time. After "Sh-Boom" became a hit, the "A" side was replaced by the song "Little Maiden." A cover version later done by a white group called The Crew-Cuts, attempted to add their own spin on the song by seemingly adding nonsensical syllables ("shh-boom, shh-boom, yadda da da yadda da da da da da") that caused considerably more commotion. Jerry Wexler, Atlantic's A&R man, had the Chords cover a Patti Page hit, "Cross Over the Bridge" (it was also covered by The Flamingos for the Chance Records label), but it was the B-side, "Sh-Boom," a vocal tune with an a cappella catchy introduction that caught the imagination. The Chords featured Carl (lead) and Claude Feaster (baritone) (born SeptemNovember 1975), Jimmy Keyes (first tenor) (born May 22, 1930, the Bronx, New York - July 22, 1995, New York), Floyd "Buddy" McRae (second tenor) and William "Ricky" Edwards (bass) - formed in 1951 in the Bronx, New York, but were not discovered until three years later, when they were spotted singing in a subway station, a performance that ultimately landed them a recording contract with Atlantic Records' Cat Records label.įloyd McRae, last surviving member, died 19 March 2013 at a nursing home in the Bronx. The Chords were a 1950s American doo wop group, whose only hit was "Sh-Boom". “Boy’s A Liar Pt.Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre.
