“Till Then” The Classics – 1963 – Great Song

“Till Then”

The Classics – 1963

The Classics (known more recently as Emil Stucchio and the Classics) were an American vocal group formed in 1958 in Brooklyn.

 

The Classics 1963

The Classics first sang together in high school; two of them had previously sung in a group called The Del-Rays. In 1959, under the auspices of manager Jim Gribble, they recorded their first single, “Cinderella”; the record Bubbled Under the US Hot 100 in early 1960.

The follow-up, “Angel Angela”, also narrowly missed the national charts, and the 1961 single “Life Is But a Dream” hit the lower regions of the Black Singles chart when Mercury Records picked it up for national distribution, but it wasn’t until they released the single “Blue Moon” with Herb Lance on lead vocals that they charted a hit. The song peaked at #50.

The Classics and Till Then

The group signed with Musicnote Records in 1963 and released “Till Then“, which became their biggest hit, peaking at #20 on the pop charts and #7 AC.

The group was best remembered for its ballads, and frequently sang versions of pop standards from the 1920s and 1930s. They frequently changed labels over the course of their career, and parted ways about 1966. Member Emil Stucchio revived the name to tour in the 1970s and again in the 1990s and 2000s. In the 1990s, the group was Stuccio, former Mystic Al Contrera, Scott LaChance, and Michael Paquette. Later it was Stuccio, Contrera, LaChance, and Teresa McClean. LaChance later left the group.

    When I originally commented I seem to have clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now every time a comment is added I get 4 emails with the exact same comment. There has to be a means you can remove me from that service? Thank you!

    Next time I read a blog, Hopefully it does not fail me just as much as this one. I mean, Yes, it was my choice to read through, however I really thought you’d have something interesting to talk about. All I hear is a bunch of crying about something that you can fix if you were not too busy looking for attention.
