About Little Joe Cook & the Thrillers

A rock and roll original, Little Joe Cook is a veteran of Alan Freed's Rock 'n Roll Review, Dick Clark's American Bandstand and Harlem's Apollo Theater. He scored a big hit called "Peanuts" and created the falsetto style of singing later to be copied by many including Frankie Valle. He has shared the stage with The Drifters, The Platters, Frankie Lyman, Sam Cooke and countless others. Paul Simon's very first professional gig was opening up for Little Joe Cook.
