Swinging Medallions

"The Swingin' Medallions have been based out of the Greenwood South Carolina area, since the early 1960's. Their musical roots came from listening to the early rhythm and blues acts. The music most often associated with the band is beach music, frat rock, R&B, or shaggin' music. After a few years of touring colleges from the Carolinas to the Louisiana Bayou, John McElrath took the group to Arthur Smith's Studio in Charlotte, North Carolina, to record "Double Shot (of My Baby's Love)". The song became a million-seller in 1966, and has been a party classic for college students for decades. "She Drives Me Out Of My Mind" and "Hey, Hey, Baby" were top 40 hits in 1966 and 1967, but "Double Shot" remains the signature song of the Swingin' Medallions. The song, in fact, continues to demonstrate its own timeless quality on television and in motion pictures. In 1999, it was featured in the NBC miniseries The 60s. And last year it was heard on the big screen in the movie Sorority Boys. Bruce Springsteen once labeled it "the greatest fraternity rock song of all time" and includes it in many of his concerts." http://www.medallions.com/
