Bernadettes's next single, "Party Girl," produced and co-written by Ernie Maresca, who also had a big hit with "Shout! Shout (Knock Yourself Out)" for himself and wrote "Runaround Sue" and the "Wanderer" for Dion, was her big hit, making her one of those one-hit wonders you hear about.
She continued doing work with the Allbut sisters as backup singers.
In the 1960s, she teamed with Denise Ferri and Peggy Santiflia and backed such artists as Connie Francis, Kitty Kallen, Bobby Hebb and Frankie Valli. She can also be heard singing background on Lou Christi's hits "Lightning Strikes" and "Rhapsody in the Rain."
In 1968, she became lead singer of the Angels for a year and recorded four sides for RCA Records, including "The Boy With the Green Eyes" written by Neil Diamond.
Make sure you go to You Tibe and listen to her "Party Girl" song. As good as Girl Group gets.
Quite an Interesting Career. --RoadDog
SIGNS OF OLD AGE: If a young girl looks at you, you check to make sure you remembered to put on your pants.
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
