22 lis 2021 · The Fleetwoods weren't able to immediately produce a follow-up single as successful as their debut, but their third single, MR. BLUE was a number one pop and Top Five R&B hit in the U.S. in late 1959.
"Mr. Blue" is a popular song written by DeWayne Blackwell [2] that was a hit for the Fleetwoods, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in November 1959, [3] giving the group its second chart-topping hit of the year. Roy Lanham played guitar on the track, and Si Zentner played the trombone.
In 1959, they were noticed by producer and Dolton Records founder Bob Reisdorff, and together they recorded their self-written first hit, "Come Softly to Me," which shot to #1 in Billboard and was also covered by others.
