Duo Doo
Wop US formé en 1955 à Los Angeles (Californie), composé de Betty et Rosie
Collins.
"Eddie My
Love," a sweet ballad by the Teen Queens, clawed its way to number 14 on the pop
charts on March 31, 1956. This occurred despite pop covers by the
Chordettes, and the Fontaine Sisters -- all three cracked the pop Top 20 the
same year. The Teen Queens were Betty and Rosie Collins, sisters of Aaron
Collins, who sang with the
Cadets and the
Jacks. The Jacks successfully covered the Feathers' "Why Don't You Write
Me," in 1955; as the
Cadets they covered the Jayhawks' "Stranded in the Jungle." So perhaps the
Teen Queens' cover problem was musical payback. The songwriter credits are
attributed to Aaron Collins, Maxwell Davis (arranger), and Sam Ling; Ling was a
pseudonym for Modern/RPM/Flair Records' owner the Bihari Brothers. Assuredly the
writers enjoyed the cover versions, all the airplay meant more Broadcast Music
Incorporated (BMI) performance money, and the covers meant more mechanical
income for the writers.
RPM Records followed the hit with "Baby Mine" which didn't do as well. Nor did
"Billy Boy," "Red Top," "Rock Everybody," or "I Miss You." By 1958 they left RPM
to sign a one record deal with RCA Records, who released the unsuccessful "Dear
Tommy." The Teen Queens' contract with Antler Records yielded two singles: "There
Is Nothing on Your Mind," an answer to "There's Something on Your Mind," and "I
Heard Violins," which became the flop that broke the camel's back. In 1961, the
Teen Queens called it quits, and never recorded again.
