Background notes

Archive material and source history

Bobby Rydell was born Robert Ridarelli in Philadelphia in 1942. He started singing in local talent shows as a teenager and signed with Cameo-Parkway Records in 1959. The next year, his song 'Wild One' spent six weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100.

That same year, Rydell recorded 'Jingle Bell Rock,' which became a holiday standard. He also had hits with songs like 'Forget Him' and 'A World Without Love.' He appeared regularly on television shows like American Bandstand and The Ed Sullivan Show during the early 1960s.
