From Big Bottom to Broadway: Remembering the Singing Hilltoppers

“The Hilltoppers” went to the top of the recording charts in less than three years. At one time in Billboard Magazine we had three songs in the top sixteen. No other recording artist in America could make the same claim. Also, over the years in Billboard we had twenty one songs that made the Top Forty. We were to be among the more popular artists in the recording industry.” “From Big Bottom to Broadway tells of an unbelievable ride around the world for four college kids called “The Hilltoppers”. The singing group went from major TV appearances to performing at theatres and clubs around the world. In 1953 we were voted by many polls as being the number one quartet in America. Our hit songs kept us high on the Billboard and Cash Box magazines popularity charts. And to think it happened to me still seems unbelievable.”
