Chris Montez Lets Dance Stereo Drums Remix
Chris Montez Lets Dance
This is another great song from the sixties,that a lot of teens first learned to dance to.Back in the day,, you didn’t just go up and down on the dance floor like a bunch of motor pistons,you flung around on the dance floor like you were going crazy,like Chris says,the twist the stomp ,the mashed potato too!

California Sun The Rivieras
California Sun The Rivieras.This is the correct version that was played on the radio
The Rivieras were made up of teenagers from South Bend Central High School in Indiana . This group should not be confused with the Coed Records East coast Rhythm & Blues group of the same name who had hits in the late 50s and the early 60s. The group was originally called the Playmates, but was forced to change their names as there was already a group playing under that name. As a result, the group decided to rename themselves after the Buick Riviera
The Rivieras were one of the many groups in America that became part of the “frat rock” movement in the early 1960s. The group had their greatest hit, in 1964 with “California Sun“, reaching #5 in the main U.S. pop chart. In fact, “California Sun” was one of the last pure American rock-and-roll songs on the Billboard Hot100 chart before the “British Invasion”, reaching its peak chart position the same week as The Beatles topped the chart with “I Want to Hold Your Hand”.
