Rocky Fellers Could Rock AND Sing!.......2004-05-08
Before the music scene heard of Michael Jackson, the Jackson 5,
the Sylvers, or even the Five Stairsteps, the fabulous Rocky
Fellers rocked the American shores by way of the Far East.
These four Filipino brothers along with their dad jolted the
audiences of American television and nightclubs from coast to
coast. It is ten year old Albert's lead vocals that could only
be compared to the likes of Frankie Lymon, Little Anthony, or
even Ronnie Spector's. KILLER JOE is the big hit, but give a
good listen to WE GOT LOVE and SANTA SANTA (featuring eight
yr. old Eddie on lead), both early Neil Diamond compositions.
LIKE THE BIG GUYS DO is the most notable follow-up to the
hit, but there's plenty a-good gems in this collection--BYE
BYE BABY, where the harmonies really shine, HEY LITTLE DONKEY,
and "little" Albert's incredible rendition of MY PRAYER.
As vocalists there's no question this group could rival the
best of the boy-bands then or now. As performers the Rocky
Fellers played everywhere from the famed Apollo Theatre in
Harlem, NY to the prestigious Fountainbleu Hotel in Miami
Beach. The Fellers also hold the distinction of being the
first act from the Philippines to score a hit on the Billboard
Top 100.
The only downershere areScepter Records recording the group on
tracks previously used by the Shirelles (Will You Love Me To-
morrow just doesn't seem to work) and the Isley Bros., although
they do quite a workout on TWIST AND SHOUT. And from the un-
released vaults--LITTLE DARLIN' is just tailor-made for the
group with young Eddie staying perfectly on key for the high
parts. The real downer is an unlisted track (School Bells Are
Ringing) that is actually sung by Carole King. It was a single
by her in 1962 on Dimension. It could be it was sent to Scepter
to consider for the Fellers, but never recorded by them.
