Party Doll

"Party Doll" is a 1957 rock 'n' roll song written by Buddy Knox and Jimmy Bowen.〔Bronson, Fred (2003). ''The Billboard Book of #1 Hits'', 5th Edition (Billboard Publications), page 19.〕 It was performed by Buddy Knox with the Rhythm Orchids and became a hit on the Roulette label.
Buddy Knox was a teenager living near Happy, Texas, in 1948 when he wrote the original verses of "Party Doll" behind a haystack on his family farm.〔 While attending college at West Texas State University, he and two college friends, Jimmy Bowen and Don Lanier, traveled to Clovis, New Mexico to record the song at the studio of Norman Petty. Knox's sister and two of her friends, Iraene Potts of Amarilo and a neighbor, sang background vocals on the song and a girl from the marching band of Clovis High School was recruited to play cymbal. After pressing copies of the record, a DJ in Amarillo began playing "Party Doll" in 1956 and it soon became a regional hit. After being contacted by Roulette Records in New York City, the song was distributed around the U.S. and became a chart-topping hit, spending a week at No. 1 on the Top 100 chart, the precursor to the ''Billboard'' Hot 100, in March 1957.〔
Almost immediately after Roulette released Knox's version of the song, competing versions of "Party Doll" were recorded and released by other record labels. Wingy Manone and Roy Brown recorded R&B versions of the song which saw some success. A less rock and roll version by singer Steve Lawrence (with Dick Jacobs conducting the orchestra) also became a pop hit that year, reaching No. 5 on the ''Billboard'' Top 100.〔Whitburn, Joel (2004). ''The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits'', 8th Edition (Billboard Publications), page 359.〕 Lawrence's version was released on the Coral label. The Crests recorded a cover version for their 1960 album, ''The Crests Sing All Biggies.'' The Fleetwoods also recorded a version of the song. Ronnie Dove, several years before he became a star, recorded the song in 1961 with his band, The Bell Tones, for Decca Records.
