March 22, 1960 – The Playmates
March 22, 1960 – “The Playmates” appear on “American Bandstand” and sing “Beep Beep.” This #4 US novelty hit became a perennial favorite on radio request shows on both sides of the Atlantic – the song had to be re-recorded for the UK to cut out the mention of commercial car brands so that the record could be played by the BBC. #ROCkabillyHop #RocHop @dickclarkprod #DickClark #AmericanBandstand #Playmates #BeepBeep
