Archive material and source history
Thee Mighty Caesars came together in Wilmington, Delaware around 1959. They put out a few singles in the early 1960s, including 'Don't Say It's a Lie' in 1961. That song got some radio play at the time, though the band's rowdy live shows and lyrics sometimes caused trouble with venues and stations.
Their sound mixed rockabilly with rhythm and blues and doo-wop elements. The lineup included Jimmy Ricks on vocals and guitar, Bill Fleming on lead guitar, Butterball Tribbett on bass, and Bo Diddley Jones on drums. They released 'Baby, That's All' in 1960 and 'You Better Move On' in 1962 before things wound down.
Ricks left in 1965, and the group broke up not long after. Tribbett and Jones later started another band called the Bonnevilles. Thee Mighty Caesars never broke through to a wide audience during their active years, but their recordings have found listeners in the decades since.
