Originating from the Red Hook section of South Brooklyn, NY, The Arrogants' original five members were Frank Ayala, Sal Giarraffa, Augie Muizzo, Mike Munoz and Marcial Rivera, and they were discovered at a 1961 rehearsal at the neighborhood junior high school by a friend in the recording industry. In the summer of '62 they recorded 'Canadian Sunset' and 'Mirror Mirror' for Lute Records while on a 7-week tour of the west coast. The following year they recorded a remake of 'When I Go to Sleep at Night.' Other favorites among these 21 songs include a nice cover of 'Sh-Boom,' 'Here Am I Broken Hearted, 'Who's That Knocking, 'Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me,' a nice juicy 'Get A Job,' 'Church Bells May Ring' and 'Zing Went the Strings of my Heart.' Nice, authentic stuff, some of which we are hearing for the first time.
