This is a classic late 1950s ballad that got on my nerves a bit: the piano pounded the same note relentlessly and the lead singer sounded a bit nasal. Oh well, it's not as if I'm perfect either.
The Voxpoppers were from the New York neighbourhood of Canarsie. Sources indicate that there were five of them, but a photo of the group shows six people, all in matching checked suits and bowties.
"Wishing For Your Love" reached #18 on the Billboard Hot 100. The group released a number of other singles between 1958 and 1962 but did not achieve any further success before dropping from sight.
