Biography
The Rollers -- Al Wilson, Eddie Wilson, Don Sampson, and Willie Willingham -- disbanded after three Liberty records singles in 1961. Initially the Jewels, the quartet formed in San Bernadino, CA, after Al Wilson got out of the Navy. Bonneville b/w Got My Eye on You, released January of 1961, got played locally. A March release, The Continental Walk sold well in quite a few locales, but it stalled at number 80 on Billboard's survey. Bad blood developed over royalties, and the Liberty situation was souring. A third single, the poor-selling The Teenage Waltz b/w The Bounce gave no cause for celebration so they disbanded. Sampson joined the Incredibles in 1968; Eddie Wilson left secular for gospel music; and Willingham left the business period. The late Al Wilson sang with Johnny Harris the Statesmen in the mid-'60s but enjoyed notoriety as a solo artist, scoring a number one hit with Show and Tell and charting with The Snake and I Got a Feeling. ~ Andrew Hamilton, Rovi
