Biography :

Vocal group from Richmond, Indiana composed of Don Davis (lead), Jimmy Jett (tenor), Bill Perkins (baritone), and Warren McCowen (bass). In 1958 they recorded "Oo Wee So Good" for Conquest, a small Indianapolis label. While normally an a cappella group, the Drakes were backed up by drummer Harold Jones and an unremembered guitarist. The flip was an instrumental called "Kitty," by the strangely-cited "The J.J. Macambo."
