The Del-Satins recorded hits as well, “Teardrops Follow Me” and were most respected studio background vocalists working with many artists most notably with Dion, on his solo hits including “The Wanderer” and “Runaround Sue” and many others. The Rhythm Method was 7-piece local Long Island band popular on the local club circuit. Known for their trademarks of strong vocal and horn arrangements, The Brooklyn Bridge recorded hit after hit beginning with their first gold record for Jimmy Webb’s, “The Worst That Could Happen”.
