The Jelly Beans

The Jelly Beans

The Jelly Beans were an R&B vocal group from Jersey City, New Jersey. Formed in 1962 by five high schoolers, the group signed with Jerry Lieber and Mike Stoller's label, Red Bird Records, in 1963. [ [http://wm04.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:a9fpxqu5ldae~T1 The Jelly Beans Biography] at Allmusic.com] Working with songwriters Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich, the group released its debut single, "I Wanna Love Him So Bad", in 1964; the song became a hit in the United States, peaking at #9 on the Billboard Hot 100. [http://wm04.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:a9fpxqu5ldae~T5 Billboard] , Allmusic.com] The follow-up, "Baby Be Mine", peaked at #51 later that year, and while the group recorded copiously, a full-length album was never issued. Red Bird dropped the group at the end of 1964; one final single was released on Eskee Records, but it fizzled and the group broke up in 1965.
