Bring Me A Dream

Happy birthday, Janet Ertel. She was one of the Chordettes, a vocal group that hit it big in the 50s.  Of all the close harmony groups from the Andrews Sisters' era, they adapted to rock and roll the best, with a series of hits, starting with their #1 (for seven weeks) in 1954, "Mr. Sandman."



Their second-biggest hit came in 1958, "Lollipop." By this point Janet was no longer touring with the group, but she still recorded.



(Not sure what Andy Williams is doing here.)
