288 The Silhouettes “Get a Job” 1957

“This group started as the Gospel Tornadoes…On Sundays they would sing gopel; during the week they changed hats and sang secular tunes. They ultimately concluded that they could not earn a living performing religious music.” They had little success after “Get a Job,” and after personnel turnover, disbanded in 1964 (Encyclopedia of Rhythm & Blues and Doo-Wop Vocal Groups).
