Description

The Calumet Theatre is proud to present our Valentines Special: “The Drifters”.  See video here.

Formed in the mid 1950’s they have produced 13 Billboard Hot 100 top-30 chart hits. The 1950s and ’60s incarnations of the group were also a force on the US R&B charts, notching six number-one R&B hits: “Money Honey” (1953), “Honey Love” (1954), “Adorable” (1955), “There Goes My Baby” (1959), “Save The Last Dance For Me” (1960), and “Under The Boardwalk” (1964). A 1970s revival in Britain, with both old and new material, was not matched in the United States, although they had their biggest successes on the UK singles chart, peaking with the number-two hit “Kissin’ in the Back Row of the Movies“.
