A GREAT HARD TO FIND ROCKER FROM THE STOMPIN' JODIMARS
RATTLE MY BONES
b/w LOTSA LOVE
The Jodimars was a band formed in the summer of 1955 which remained active until 1958. The band was created by former members of Bill Haley's Comets who had quit that group in a salary dispute. The name of the group was derived from the first letters of the first names of the founding members.
The group's first recordings on Capitol came out in late 1955, and the band scored a few minor hits such as "Well Now Dig This" and "Let's All Rock Together." In 1956, the Jodimars became one of the first rock and roll acts to take up residence in showrooms.
In 1989, Johnny Hale brought the original Comets to the UK as part of his Brean Sands Rock 'n' Roll Weekender. The Jodimars (Joey, Dick and Marshall) were backed by three members of the UK Group The Stargazers (Pete Davenport on lead guitar, Chris Gardner on piano, and Ricky Lee Brawn on drums) in a set which included the Capitol album in its entirety plus a few other later Jodimars' numbers, and was followed by a set as "The Original Comets". This remains the only billed appearance by the Jodimars since the 1960s.
