The Coasters songs were written by Jerry Lieber & Mike Stoller. Two Jewish boys from Los Angeles who wrote the best Black rock n roll ever! The doo-wop groups of that era were usually 4 or 5 guys. The lead was the tenor and the singer with the deep voice was the bass singer. They honed their craft on the street corners of Detroit or Chicago.

My parents were '50s kids (my Dad a greaser), and they raised me on this stuff (and classic country which my dad was also into) as a young child. I very much appreciate that my introduction to rock and roll and its influences and derivatives went right back to the beginnings. It gave me a greater appreciation for what came after. How many AC/DC fans back in the day, for example, knew that Angus' playing (and stage moves) were hugely influenced by Chuck Berry? How many even knew who Chuck Berry was? Well, if your parents passed on their music to you, you knew. Sure, as a teen you tend to reject your parent's music, among other things, but we come back to it later with greater appreciation. I wish more parents would share their music with their kids. And yes, my Mom often sang that refrain to me when I gave her trouble. 🙂

From my pre-teen perspective... mom is giving all the instructions and the kid talks back by saying "Yakety Yak." Dad, sitting in his easy chair reading the paper hears the kid and corrects him by saying "Don't talk back." Dance of the time would have been swing. Dances like the Twist and Locomotion didn't come in until later. When I became a teenager, my hair style was a curl in the front and a duck-tail in the back, also know as a DA (Duck's Ass).

There's a long history of black novelty records, going way back to the 20s. I've heard Chuck Berry say he really wanted to be a novelty record star, but got stuck inventing rock and roll instead. His "My Ding-A-Ling" record was one of his personal favorite songs he ever wrote. A lot of the old novelty records were pretty racy, with lots of double entendre. I've got an old collection of 40s novelties with songs like "The Honey Dripper" and "If It Don't Fit Don't Force It" and "Big Ten Inch Record". And a lot of those really old blues records are obviously about sex. The Coasters were a clean, radio-friendly version of those old black novelty singers. Kind of a cross between black novelty songs, doo-wop, and classic R&B. After the Coasters, comedy songs changed. I think the Coasters were maybe the last in a long tradition of those old-style black comic singers.

The Coasters _were_ straight comedy *and* great singers as a group. You should check out "Poison Ivy," "Charlie Brown," "Searchin'," "Youngblood," "Along Came Jones," and my personal favorite, an actual comedy skit called "T'aint Nothin' to Me." And the great King Curtis on sax was practically a member of the group. You should check out his great track "Memphis Soul Stew." And King Curtis's performance on "Yakety Yak" inspired a kind-of parody track by sax player Boots Randolph called "Yackety Sax."

The first Coasters I ever heard on the radio was ALONG CAME JONES when I was just five years old. I loved it so much my parents bought me the single 45. I think you two would love it as much as young me did and still do.

Growing up and seeing rock and roll come in, you take it for granted, makes me want to thank you for this.

Many great rockers acknowledge the Coasters as an influence for them. They did a lot of things on their records that were never done before.

If you like the saxophone solo, check out "Yakety Sax", an instrumental piece by Boots Randolph. It was inspired by the "Yakety Yak" solo.

That's King Curtis on Tenor Sax with the Coasters. King Curtis was a Soul Jazz saxophone player. He played with Coasters, Buddy Holly, Sam Cooke, Aretha Franklin, and others, as well as his own group.

Love Chantilly Lace (the big bopper) and try the Temptations ‘just My imagination’ or ‘papa was a rolling stone’

I have the 45 (the small records) of this. My mom bought it new. I have all of my mom and dads records all the way back to the 50’s and a couple westerns from the 40’s, plus all of my own (hundreds!). I always loved this song.

I feel like you’d get a kick out of They Might Be Giants. They’ve got a unique sound and a few weird/entertaining/educational/funny songs to choose from. Some of my favorites are: - Birdhouse in Your Soul - Don’t Let’s Start - Istanbul - They Might Be Giants - “Why Does the Sun Shine? (The Sun is a Mass of Incandescent Gas)” & “Why Does the Sun Really Shine?” - James K. Polk - I Palindrome I - My Evil Twin - Particle Man - Where Do They Make Balloons? - Au Contraire - Someone Keeps Moving My Chair - Your Racist Friend

I met The Coasters on a cruise to Alaska. They were the performers. Fun guys. Great songs.
