Bobby Rydell
Born Robert Ridarelli, Rydell hailed - like his fellow pop
crooners Fabian and Frankie Avalon - from the prolific city of
Philadelphia, and he linked with trumpeter Avalon as the drummer
with Rocco & His Saints.
Bobby delivered three dozen US hits between 1959 and 1965,
including Sway (1961), Forget Him (1963) and
his biggest hit, Wild One, which reached Number
Two in 1960.
His major claim to fame these days is that the high school
featured in the movie Grease (1978) was named in his
honour.
