The Hi-Lo's
The Hi-Lo's were an a cappella quartet formed in 1953, who achieved their greatest fame in the late 1950s and 1960s. The group's name is reportedly a reference to their extreme vocal and physical ranges (Bob Strasen and Bob Morse were tall, Gene Puerling and Clark Burroughs were short). ==History== The group consisted of Gene Puerling (bass-baritone or 4th voice, arranger and leader), Bob Strasen (baritone or 3rd voice), Bob Morse (baritone or 2nd voice and occasional soloist) and Clark Burroughs (tenor or 1st voice/lead). In 1959, Don Shelton replaced Strasen. They were occasionally supported by Frank Sinatra. Clare Fischer was their pianist for years and wrote some of their arrangements. The Hi-Lo's recorded the theme song to the 1956 television series ''Noah's Ark''. They were also featured on the soundtrack of the motion picture ''Everything's Ducky'' (1961), contributing three songs: "Everything's Ducky," "Moonlight Music" and "The Scuttlebutt Walk." They also made numerous appearances on television and had many live performances. Early on they even entered the contests of the newly formed Barbershop Harmony Society, finishing in the top ten in 1949, but soon decided their style was more the close harmony of many 1940s jazz vocal groups.
