1940 - Jimmy Clanton was born on this day. Singer from Baton Rouge, La. Riding the wave of popular teen music in the 1950s and 60s, he toured with performers like Fats Domino, The Platters, and Jerry Lee Lewis. Between 1958 and 1962, he had several national hits such as "Go Jimmy Go," "Another Sleepless Night," written by Neil Sedaka and "Venus in Blue Jeans." Clanton even continued to release hits after he was drafted into the U.S. Army in 1961 and served for two years. Clanton also starred in the rock n roll movie, "Go Johnny Go," produced by Allan Freed, the noted rock n roll disk jockey. |
