Sh-Boom
"Sh-Boom" (sometimes referred to as "Life Could Be a Dream") is an early doo-wop song. It was written by James Keyes, Claude Feaster, Carl Feaster, Floyd F. McRae, and James Edwards, members of the R&B vocal group The Chords and published in 1954. It was a U.S. top ten hit that year for both The Chords (who first recorded the song) and The Crew-Cuts.
==History==
The song was first recorded on Atlantic Records' subsidiary label Cat Records by The Chords on March 15, 1954〔Cat catalogue #104, "B" Side: ''Cross Over The Bridge'' on the first issue, on the later issues the "B" Side is ''Little Maiden''.〕 and would be their only hit song. "Sh-Boom" reached #2 on the ''Billboard'' R&B charts and peaked at #9 on the pop charts. It is sometimes considered to be the first doo-wop or rock 'n' roll record to reach the top ten on the pop charts (as opposed to the R&B charts). This version was ranked #215 on ''Rolling Stones list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time and is the group's only song on the list.
A more traditional version was made by The Crew-Cuts (with the David Carroll Orchestra) for Mercury Records〔Mercury catalogue # 70404; "B" side: ''I Spoke Too Soon''〕 and was #1 on the ''Billboard'' charts in for nine weeks during August and September 1954. The single first entered the charts on July 30, 1954 and stayed for 20 weeks. The Crew-Cuts performed the song on Ed Sullivan's ''Toast of the Town'' on December 12, 1954. On the ''Cash Box'' magazine best-selling record charts, where both versions were combined, the song reached #1.
