The Chordettes "Zorro"

Saturday Night Beech-Nut Show. April 26, 1958

[@jameslye1899]

Love this song. For 2 years every Thursday night 1957-1959, all the kids watched Zorro, to laugh at bumbling Sgt. Garcia. And of course, to watch Zorro. Such good memories. Gracious thanks NRR Archives for helping me relive the dream

Lynn Evans Mand, the lead singer of the vocal harmony group the Chordettes, passed away on February 6th, 2020 at the age of 95... She joined the group in 1952 when their lead singer could not make a show in Mand’s hometown of Youngstown, Ohio. She was asked to step in and was invited to join the group. After the Chordettes disbanded in the 1960s, Mand moved to Long Island and became a special education teacher... Between 1954 and 1961 the quartet had thirteen records on the Top 100 chart, four made the Top 10 with one reaching #1, "Mr. Sandman", for 2 weeks on Billboard's Best Sellers in Stores, Most Played by Jockeys, and Most Played on Juke Boxes charts... Besides "Mr. Sandman", their three other Top 10 records were "Born to Be With You" {#5 in 1956}, "Just Between You and Me" {#8 in 1957}, and "Lollipop"* {#2 for 1 week in 1958}... May Ms. Mand R.I.P. * The week "Lollipop" was at #2, the #1 record for that week was "Tequila" by the Champs... And from the 'For What It's Worth' department, their "Zorro" peaked at #17 in 1958...
