An important cog in Los Angeles' doo wop community during the '50s, Bobby Day wrote three often-covered early rock classics in 1957-1958. Day was part of <a href="spotify:artist:121nZKKBmAkL8NKaXY0rkC">the Hollywood Flames</a>, one of the area's top R&B vocal groups, and briefly part of <a href="spotify:artist:2gOghlWpnfwGGip7S1cMuq">Bob & Earl</a>, later to hit without Day on "Harlem Shuffle." Day formed his own group, the Satellites, in 1957, cutting the original "Little Bitty Pretty One" for Class Records. A nearly identical cover by <a href="spotify:artist:61VpPyyJn2bitby8tbafzT">Thurston Harris</a> beat the original out, so Day countered with the driving "Rockin' Robin" in 1958, an R&B chart-topper. Its flip, "Over and Over," was a hit in its own right, although <a href="spotify:artist:2HBbky0Z08ZcCKVsXWbNE4">the Dave Clark Five</a>'s 1965 revival is better remembered today. Day waxed a few more hits for Class in 1959, including "That's All I Want" and a derivative "The Bluebird, the Buzzard & the Oriole," flitting from label to label during the '60s. ~ Bill Dahl, Rovi
