Mon Sherrys

A lesser known girl group, The Sherrys put out only this lp in 1962. It features their only hit single “Pop Pop Popeye” (sic above) which was a big dance hit that year (especially in New Orleans). Delthine and Dinell Cook originally formed the group with Tammi Montgomery (later to achieve fame as Tammi Terrell on Motown), but that combination soon fizzled when the sisters and Montgomery couldn’t get along very well so she’s not on this record.

Guyden Records out of Philadelphia put out lots of late fifties teen dance singles back in the days of record “hops” and dance fads like the “fly,” the “stomp,” the “slop” and the “mashed potato”. In the early sixties, the company merged with another Phili label, Jamie Records, and soon put out records under the Arctic imprint as well.
