Zu Zu - the Bonnevilles

Zu Zu - the Bonnevilles
2:42
single, 1960
Written by William Maxwell and Albert George

Very little is known about this doo-wop group.  Some sites say the song was released in 1959, some say 1962.  Some say it was written by Maxwell and George, and some have an A. Cooper listed as the co-author.  The Bonnevilles seem to have released only this song, and its A-side, "Lorraine."  Anyway, this is a fine example of late '50s doo-wop, all soaring falsetto, harmony background, and "bop bop bop bop bop" backing.
