This 67 year old grandpa has great memories seeing them perform live at the Montebello Ballroom back in the day where many fine young ladies liked and wanted to slow dance. At age 16 back in '71, my mind and body was always geared for that style of dancing, especially those with a fit body that snugged up well against my 5'-10" 160 pound body. Those slow dancing songs, otherwise known as oldies but goodies, were pretty much real music of the past that may never be part of today's junk music/noise of hip hop or other song lyrics made for auto tune.

Hey Monica - The Chantels are from The Bronx, not Brooklyn. St. Augustine's parish. Their name came from another Bronx parish - Our Lady of De Chantel where Arlene Smith had a basketball game and loved the church name. "The Plea" was an original by them and was covered by The Jesters - a Brooklyn group.
