Mr. Earl "Speedo" Carroll & The Cadillacs - YOU ARE (Live) video free download

Nickygino 1964

Originally the "CADILLACS" came together as a group in early 1953, as the "CARNATIONS." Hailing from Harlem, NYC, (with the help of manager Esther Navarro) Earl Carroll along with J.R. Bailey and the Cadillacs (vocal group Hall of Fame 2004) went on to record some true "Classic Do-Wopp" records in the 1950s, on the JOSIE record label. Their classic song (done by so many groups over the years) "Gloria" and "Wonder Why" were recorded in 1954. I personally love "Zoom" and "The Girl I Love." In 1955, their most notorious record "Speedo" was released, bringing a large white teenage audience to black rock and roll do-wopp music. In 1959, the Cadillacs were featured in the movie "Go Johnny Go." Despite many line-up changes over the years, the Cadillacs have always been considered a premiere true original do-wopp group, from 1950s NYC. They have always entertained us and were truly loved and embraced in the NY Metro area. Their songs were constantly played on the old "WCBSFM 101.1 FM NYC" radio station. (this was NYC's oldie's station of the past) Earl Carroll was a gentlemen and will be missed by many. He is a true part of 1950s America and will never be forgotten. RIP Earl and J.R. I thank you and the Cadillacs for all the great music and memories you have given us over the years....rock on....
