Other examples of delayed popularity includes : “THERE’S A MOON OUT TONIGHT“ by The Capris, though recorded in 1958 , it didn’t become popular until 1961. Another was , “RAMA LAMA DING DING“ by The Edsels, recorded in 1958, but also, un-noticed until 1961 and The Mello Kings “TONIGHT, TONIGHT“, though released in 1957, it made no real “noise“ until 1960-61 either . In many instances, disc jockey, Art Laboe and his “OLDIES, BUT GOODIES“ records albums helped to bring this popularity around. “TONIGHT, TONIGHT“ , for example, was featured on volume #1 of the “Oldies But Goodies“ collect
