The group's 1962 single for , "I Love You", was a hit in the U.S., peaking at #22 that year on the Billboard Hot 100.[1] The tune was an amalgam of doo wop and Latin beats, and was co-written by bass Ernest Newson and the group's manager, Willie Ewing.[2] The group recorded further singles for Chex and but never returned to the charts, remaining archetypical one-hit wonders.
