Gary Lewis and the Playboys - Little Miss Go-Go

Not one of his best known numbers but this is beachtastic in the extreme. Group leader Gary is the son of comedian Jerry Lewis - they got their first gig (at Disneyland) without revealing this fact and started to attract big crowds then management stepped in and made a big deal out of his pedigree.
Gary Lewis had a weak voice and studio trickery was used to make it sound good enough to win him Cashbox vocalist of the year in 1965.
