shirley et company - shame on you (rock) 1975 (voir la video)
"Shame, Shame, Shame" is a 1974 hit song written by Sylvia Robinson, performed by American disco band Shirley & Company and released on the Vibration label. The lead singer is Shirley Goodman, the male vocalist is Jesus Alvarez.
The track, with its prominent use of the Bo Diddley beat, was one of the first international disco hits and reached number 12 on the Billboard charts. It also hit number one on the soul singles chart for one week. "Shame, Shame, Shame" also stayed at number one on the disco/dance charts for four weeks. It was, however, the sole success of this one-hit wonder band: a full-length album Shame, Shame, Shame was subsequently recorded and was released in 1975.
The lead singer Shirley Goodman, was one half of the duo Shirley and Lee who had enjoyed a major hit 18 years earlier, in 1956, with the song "Let The Good Times Roll" for Aladdin Records.
