Archive material and source history
Sha-Na-Na started at Columbia University in New York City in 1969, with Jocko Marcellino, Don York, Scott Powell, Jim Brady, and Fred Parris in the original lineup. They got signed by producer Don Kirshner and put out their self-titled debut album in 1971, which landed in the Billboard top 20. Their sound leaned on doo-wop covers and a high-energy live show, with songs like 'Born To Hand Jive' and 'A Teenager In Love' becoming staples.
They kept releasing albums through the early '70s, including 'Sha-Na-Na Again' in 1972 and 'Golden Age of Rock 'n' Roll' in 1973. While they had fans, some critics felt their approach was too polished or commercial for the doo-wop style they were reviving. The group also popped up on TV, with an appearance on 'Happy Days' helping broaden their reach beyond the concert stage.
