Summary

[edit]
Description Photo of the vocal group, The Chordettes.
Date

No dating on release. Circa early 1950s based on the following:

en:The Chordettes started working regularly on Godfrey's radio show after winning one of his talent contests in 1949. One of the Chordettes, Janet Ertel, married Godfrey's music director and orchestra leader, en:Archie Bleyer in 1954. However, in 1953, Godfrey became angry at Bleyer's signing some cast members to recording contracts for Bleyer's label, Cadence, without Godfrey's knowledge. en:Julius LaRosa was the first to be fired by Godfrey, followed by Bleyer. Because of The Chordettes' connection with Bleyer, the group was also off the program, replaced by the McGuire Sisters.
