They were working the NYC circuit (including Bronx spots & Long Island record hops) when local DJ Alan Fredericks took notice. Fredericks saw them at a Long Island record hop and was so impressed he recorded them in a Times Square studio for just $50. #AlanFredericks #TheBellNotes #OneHitWondered

The Bell Notes were a quintet from East Meadow, NY, who captured the raw, garage-style sound of the late '50s a few years before the British Invasion changed everything… Sadly, this is the only clip I can find of them 🤣 #TheBellNotes #OneHitWondered
