| a
brief history
In
the late '50s in Center City, Philadelphia, local vocal coach,
Artie Singer, whose student Johnny
Madara had recorded Singer's song, "Be My Girl,"
hooked up with the singer to record a song written by Madara
and partner Dave White through his small Philly label, Singular
Records, called "Do The Bop." This would later be
changed to "At The Hop" and become a classic in
Rock and Roll History.
