This show produced by Irving Feld, was at the CYC Tuesday, April 24, 1956. The Main headliner was Bill Haley and His Comets, who were riding high on a string of hits at this time. Also on this bill were The Platters, Clyde McPhatter, Laverne Baker, Big Joe Turner, The Teenagers (w/Frankie Lymon) The Teenqueens, Bo Diddley, The Drifters, The Flamingos, and The Colts. All of which were backed by Red Prysock and his Orchestra. I am looking for information on this and similar events in Scranton and Northeastern Pennsylvania from the 1950's and 1960's.
What little information I have gathered so far can be found on my other site: http://remnantsofthepast.piczo.com/?cr=5
