Biography :
Like the Danleers, The Webtones were named after their manager and songwriter Danny Webb. The group consisted of Louis Williams (Lead), Terry Wilson (Baritone), Frankie Clemens (Bass), Duke Ebron (Second Tenor) and Bruce Cooke (First Tenor). Their manager wrote the Danleers’s only hit and charting single, “One Summer Night,” which was also the group’s debut single in April 1958.
By
late fall, Danny Webb had placed The Webtones, with MGM for one quick
unheralded release, "My Lost Love" b/w "Walk, Talk And Kiss".
unfortunately, Despite the promising and beautiful "My Lost Love" the
single never charted and this will be their only recordings as The
Webtoones... After their last single on Mercury, The danleers broke up.
Danny Webb put Lead singer' Jimmy Weston together with three members of
the Webtones, to form a new Danleers group : Louis Williams, Terry Wilson and Frankie Clemens.

then proceeded to get the reorganized Danleers a contract with
Columbia's Epic subsidiary. The New Danleers recorded some singles on
Epic, Everest Le Mans and Smash. With no hits since 1958, the Danleers
were history by the mid-60s.
