The Cuff Links - Tracy (1969)




The brainchild of Pat Rizzo, the Cuff Links were a studio group featuring Ron Dante, lead singer of The Archies. Rizzo had recruited songwriters Paul Vance and Lee Pockriss, who came up with the catchy, bubblegum singalong "Tracy", which became an international hit in 1969. Dante was the sole multi-voiced singer on the original recording but once the song charted, a group was specially created comprising Pat Rizzo (saxophone), Rick Dimino (keyboards), Bob Gill (trumpet/flugelhorn/flute), Dave Lavender (guitar), Andrew "Junior" Denno (bass), Joe Cord (vocals) and Danny Valentine (drums). Dante decided not to tour with the group.
