172 The Moonglows “Sincerely” 1954

The founders of the group, Robert Dallas and Harvey Fuqua, performed as a duet in Louisville, Kentucky. They added Prentiss Barnes and Danny Coggins and “initially called themselves the Crazy Sounds.” After minimal success with Champagne and Chance labels, they signed with Chess, which produced their first major hit, “Sincerely” (Encylopedia of Rhythm & Blues and Doo-Wop Vocal Groups). The song became a pop hit with the McGuire Sisters.
