Big Bob was Bob Kornegay, a bass singer who had recorded in the 1950s group The Du Droppers, who recorded for RCA. He was also known as “Texas Bob” and “Big Daddy”. This single had previously been issued on UK Top Rank JAR-185 (B side “What am I”) and was licenced by the music publisher to Ranks. The name “Clowney” on the composing credits may be David Cortez Clowney (Dave Baby Cortez). Does anyone have any biographical details for Mr Kornegay (pronounced Carnegie), please.
