Way Before my time.
Brings a tear to the old eye.............
This is supposedly Tom Hanks Father:
If you were alive in 1957, and old enough to enjoy Rock and Roll, you will
probably remember the group, "The Diamonds" who had just launched their
super hit "Little Darlin' ".
For you that are too young to remember - it was a time when the performers
were happy, enjoying themselves, respecting their fans, dressed
appropriately and their lyrics could be understood.
They did not feel obligated to scream, eat the microphone, mumble inaudible
lyrics or trash the set.
In 1957, The Diamonds had a hit with "Little Darlin". 47 years later, they
were requested to perform at Atlantic City ...
This link leads to both performances.
Watch the first one then scroll down for the new one 47 years later.
Tom Hanks father is much better looking than Tom, and even better looking
with age. In the linked videos Tom Hank's father is the lead singer on the
left. He still has it! Hope you enjoy.
