The Genateam and the team of Randy Price and Peter Morley were each nosed out of the blue ribbon by a tie-breaker. The Delphi Trivia Club's excellent 498x+ was therefore only good enough for fifth place in this quiz, whose mean score was just shy of 400. Check out the solution to The Puzzler and the names of those entrants who solved it in the section following the main quiz. My thanks to all those who participated. Rich Ardini has posted GOLQ191 ... onward and upward!

Howard Teitelbaum & Bonnie Teitelbaum: Recorded 1/29/64 in Paris, during a 3-week concert engagement there.

Work all night on a drink o' rum #04) Belafonte, Harry: "Banana Boat (Day-O)" (1957) [5] {7} Beautiful girls, walk a little slower When you walk by me Lingering sunsets, stay a little longer With the lonely sea Children everywhere, when you shoot at bad men Shoot at me #05) Bennett, Tony, "This Is All I Ask" (1963) [70] {-} Also recorded by Burl Ives (#67 in 1963).

Also recorded by Cher (#15 in 1965) and The Hollies, amongst others. Note that "Cher" fits alphabetically here, but her version does not include the given lyrics. I don't like dancin' with Crazy Ted He's always jumpin' on my head #08) Christie, Susan: "I Love Onions" (1966) [63] {-} The Coasters: Through his 1996 edition, Whitburn says that she was Lou Christie's sister, but in his 1999 edition, he no longer states that.

If you don't come out tonight when the moon is bright I'm gonna knock and ring and tap until you do #14) Hodges, Eddie: "I'm Gonna Knock On Your Door" (1961) [12] {-} There goes the one I love There goes the boy I wasn't worthy of #15) James, Joni: "There Goes My Heart" (1958) [19] {-} And Betty Boop and boop-boop-be-doop Mohair Sam from Alabam And Minnesota Fats from Hoboken Flats #16) Long, Shorty: "Function At The Junction" (1966) [97] {42} Motown singer/songwriter Frederick Earl Long.

Satirist Allan Sherman addressed the popular dismay at this in his "My Son, The Celebrity" LP, with a tune entitled "The Let's All Call Up A.T.& T. and Protest to the President March."

My third charge is that she was dishonest And stripped me of all my manly pride #23) Unifics, The: "Court Of Love" (1968) [25] {3} I wouldn't change one thing about you Just take me inside your arms And hold me tight And always be by my side If I am wrong or right I'm begging you #24) Warwick, Dionne: "Don't Make Me Over" (1962/63) [21] {5} Her first top-100 hit. She slipped into the silence of my dreams last night Wandering through, too, she's turning on each light Her laughter spills like water from the river to the sea I'm swept away from sadness clinging to her memory #25) Williams, Andy: "Sweet Memories" (1968) [75] {-} And if by chance you hear me laughing I'll only laugh to fool the crowd Just like Pagliacci did I'll keep my sadness hid And due to this I laugh out loud #T1) Crawford, Carolyn: "My Smile Is Just A Frown (Turned Upside Down)" (1964) [-] {39} Carolyn won a WCHB Detroit talent competition.

The Smokey Robinson/Janie Bradford/Mickey Stevenson composition "My Smile Is Just A Frown (Turned Upside Down)" was her second; she was just 15 years old. Six years later, Smokey would re-use the Pagliacci theme with greater success in "The Tears Of A Clown." It's all right when people say That those foolish kids can't be ready For the love that comes their way #T2) Holly, Buddy: "Well ... All Right" (1958/59) [-] {-} The flip side of "Heartbeat," Holly's last release before the fateful plane crash of 2/3/59.

The quote: When WFIL-TV became an affiliate of ABC-TV, 27-year-old host Dick Clark pitched 'Philadelphia Bandstand' to ABC's New York execs. Despite reservations, they decided to try out 'American Bandstand' on sixty-seven affiliated stations. According to Clark: "To show them that we had people watching, in the first three or four days we [A.B.] were on, we ran a contest on 'Why I'd like a date with Sal Mineo'. It drew forty thousand pieces of mail." The diagram's fourth column contains the scrambled letters of CHORDETTES, the first stars (along with Billy Williams) to appear on American Bandstand when it first aired nationally in 1957. One of the completed answers' columns spells out REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE, the 1955 movie starring James Dean, Natalie Wood, and Sal Mineo. Teen idol and Academy award nominee Mineo had a brief singing career, hitting #9 in 1957 with "Start Movin' (In My Direction) / Love Affair" and following up with three other singles within a year. The Broadway and Hollywood actor was stabbed to death at age 37 in his West Hollywood apartment's garage. Clue Answers: ------------- A.
