The Bobbettes

The Bobbettes were a girl group who had a 1957 top 10 hit song called "Mr. Lee". The group, which originally formed in Harlem, New York, in 1955, was first known as 'The Harlem Queens.' The girls first met while singing at the Glee Club at P.S. 109 in Harlem. They were soon discovered by James Dailey, a record producer, who also became their manager, while playing a concert at the legendary Apollo Theater's amateur night, and were quickly signed to a contract on the Atlantic Record Label.
