The Cadillacs

The Cadillacs were a "doo-wop" group that formed (as The Carnations) in
New York City's Harlem area in 1953, with
Earl Carroll as lead vocalist.
The group almost immediately started going through personnel changes, a
problem that would plague it for many years (at one time
Teddy Pendergrass joined the group,
eventually leaving to join
Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes).
In 1955 they recorded their biggest hit, "Speedo", which was lead
singer Carroll's nickname.
