March 15, 2022 Records of the Day

The Orlons was one of the most popular groups to come out of Philadelphia, the city that had Cameo-Parkway Records, which released hits by Bobby Rydell, the Dovells, and Chubby Checker. The Orlons was the back up group for Dee Dee Sharp on her mega-smash, “Mashed Potato Time.” Soon, the Orlons had their own hits like “The Wah Watusi” and “South Street.” Their 1963 album, “Not Me” on Cameo Records, is worth up to $100.00 today as is the “Not Me” 45 with its picture sleeve. Both are shown here.
