dante and the evergreens
The following edits ( deletions and additions) need to be made for accuracy, as the Bio is not correct in many spots. Here are the correct changes:Delete the line" who also played guitar on their records" In the following paragraph it should correctly begin: "The group immediately went on tour on the East Coast when the record went #1 in Philly and New York." The next line should end : "such as the New York Aplollo Theater (twicw) and The Uptown Theater in Philadelphia." DELETE " and the Washington Howard DC theater" the next line should read: "They also did appearances on The Merv Griffin Show, Dick Clark's American Bandstand and The Clay Cole show in NYC. Next lines should read: "Their version of "What are you doing New Year's Eve?" ( their single release in November of 1960) became a Doo Wop classic, receiving much airplay in NYC that year. However, further chart success eluded them and the group disbanded in Early '61 when member Tony Moon moved from LA to Nashville to become Brenda Lee's guitarist and conductor."

Begin the next line with "Frank Rosenthal eventually returned to College, but died suddenly on a cruise ship in 1964." continue with " Bill Young sought a career-etc. After " Herb Alpert= remove the next sentence about Tony Moon.The last info about Tony Moon should read " After several years with Brenda Lee, Tony Moon left the road and opened the Screen Gems-Columbia Music Publishing offices in Nashville. He also became a successful songwriter ( several Awards) and one of only several Nashville songwriters to have a Beatles release ("Soldier of Love" on "Live at the BBC"), also covered by Marshall Crenshaw and Pearl Jam. He also encouraged Eddie Rabbit and Allen Reynolds (songwriter and Garth Brooks producer) to move to Nashville and jump started their early careers. Tony co-produced several hits by Pittsburgh's "The Vogues" and later founded Crescent Moon Talent in 1969. It's still on Music Row going strong after 45 years!.
