Biography
A longtime denizen of New York's doo wop scene, Cooper's only major hit was the 1962 instrumental Wiggle Wobble. The Norfolk, VA, native was a member of the Empires and the Whirlers, and managed the Charts, before signing with Danny Robinson's Everlast imprint and cutting a vocal called Dig Yourself with his band, the Soul Rockers. Ironically, it was the flip side (a pounding instrumental called Wiggle Wobble, featuring prominent King Curtis-styled tenor sax by ex-Charts lead singer Joe Grier) that gave Cooper his only chart ride. Follow-up efforts included the similar Let's Do the Boston Monkey for Enjoy. ~ Bill Dahl, Rovi
