In 1961, the Marcels took a number-one-hit from 1935 by Glen Gray and made it their own. With the Intro of “Bomp Baba Bomp Ba Bomp Ba Bomp Ba Bomp Bomp Baba Bomp Baba Bomp Da Dang Dang Da Ding A Dong Ding,” “Blue Moon” rocketed up to number one on the Billboard Charts. The original 45 is worth up to $30.00, but the “Blue Moon” album, released by Colpix Records in 1961, is worth up to $300.00 today.
