Description

A VERY RARE AND SUPERB SOUL / R&B 78 FROM OTIS WILLIAMS AND THE CHARMS ON A UK PARLOPHONE PRESSING

THE SECRET

b/w DON'T WAKE UP THE KIDS

A Cincinnati vocal group, Otis Williams & the Charms landed a number-one R&B hit for almost ten weeks in 1954 with "Hearts of Stone," a song that remains among the most enduring doo wop anthems. Otis Williams, Richard Parker, Donald Peak, Joe Penn, and Rolland Bradley first recorded for Rockin' in 1953, but did "Hearts of Stone" for Deluxe the next year. They had several other hits, among them "Ling, Ting, Tong," "Two Hearts," "Ivory Tower," and "United," all of which made the Top Ten on the R&B charts between 1955 and 1957.
