"One of the best East Coast groups from the late fifties. All cuts demonstrate the Aquatones great sound. The CD features 2 versions of their hit "You" and 2 verisons of "For You, For You".
Female lead, Lynne Nixon can take her voice to places I wouldn't even dream of.
"You" was featured in the movie "Mean Streets". Very informative liner notes. The group also appears on the latest Doo-Wop special on PBS. Worth the price if you can find the CD."

"The Aquatones are the World's longest running One Hit Wonders as they recently made a new album.The original lead singer Lyn Nixon passed away a few years ago and was replaced by another woman allegedly like her vocally.

Lyn Nixon was actually the first and possibly only rock'n'roll soprano.

The big hit "You" held off competition from Gale Storm and made the Top 30 in 1958.

Formerly the Aquatones were a male group known as the Teen Kings,a name which could never have survived-Aquatones is a classic name.
