Sandy Nelson

Originario di Santa Monica, California, Sander Nelson (n. 1938, USA) ai tempi delle scuole medie ha compagni di Scuola che si chiamano Jan Berry e Dean Torrence (Jan & Dan), Nancy Sinatra e Phil Spector. Verso il 1957 Nelson suona la batteria in una band locale, Kip Tyler and the Flips. Il gruppo, che per un certo periodo comprende anche Bruce Johnston (poi nei Beach Boys), incide alcuni pezzi per le etichette EBB e CHALLENGE. Nel 1958 Nelson accompagna il gruppo vocale dei Teddy Bears, del quale fa parte l'amico Phil Spector; la loro To Know Him Is To Love Him, su etichetta DORE, balza al primo posto in classifica nell'ottobre 1958 ed è in breve un million seller. Dopo avere lavorato come sessionman, nell'autunno del 1959 Nelson registra Teen Beat per l'etichetta ORIGINAL SOUND; il pezzo diventa un grande hit nelle classifiche e porta Nelson a un contratto con la IMPERIAL RECORDS. Le cose però non vanno subito bene ed è solo dopo due anni che Nelson ottiene un altro successo con Let There Be Drum, esempio tipico del sound che Nelson crea con il suo strumento e che conserverà nelle incisioni future. La perdita del piede sinistro in un incidente automobilistico fin dal 1961 non influenzerà il modo di Nelson di suonare la batteria e la sua produzione resta quantitativamente imponente fino al '70; col passar del tempo tuttavia vengono meno spunti originali e, dal 1966 in avanti, i dischi sono decisamente mediocri.

Sander L. Nelson (born December 1, 1938) is an American drummer. Nelson, one of the best-known rock drummers of the early 1960s, had several solo instrumental Top 40 hits and was a session drummer on many other well-known hits, and released over 30 albums. He lives in Boulder City, Nevada, and continues to experiment with music on keyboards and piano.

Career

His first recording, with a band called the Renegades (Richard Podolor, Bruce Johnston, and Nick Venet), was "Geronimo", written by Venet, produced by Kim Fowley, and released on the Original Sound Records label. Although it flopped on the national charts, it charted in some of the Mid West markets. The song, along with "Charge", is part of the soundtrack of 1959 film Ghost of Dragstrip Hollow released by American International Pictures.
Nelson attended high school with Jan Berry, Dean Torrence (who became Jan and Dean), and Kim Fowley. After gaining respect as a session drummer, he played on such songs as "To Know Him Is To Love Him" (Phil Spector's Teddy Bears, 1958), "Alley-Oop" (The Hollywood Argyles, 1960), and "A Thousand Stars" (Kathy Young and the Innocents, 1960).
His song "Teen Beat", on Original Sound Records, rose to number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1959. It sold over one million copies, and was awarded a gold disc. Subsequently, he signed with the Imperial record label, and pounded out two more Top 40 hits, "Let There Be Drums", which went to number 7 on the Billboard Hot 100, and "Drums Are My Beat". In December 1961, the British music magazine, NME, reported that "Let There Be Drums" had gone Top 10 in both the United Kingdom and United States. All three were instrumentals (a feat rarely repeated). Guitar playing on these hits was by co-writer Richard Podolor, later a songwriter and record producer.
Near the end of 1963, Nelson was in a motorcycle accident. The injuries necessitated amputation of his right foot and part of that leg. Nonetheless, Nelson continued to record into the early 1970s, releasing two or three albums a year, consisting of cover versions of popular hits plus a few original compositions.
In September 2008, Nelson and a few friends, recording as Sandy Nelson and the Sin City Termites, released a new record of original compositions, Nelsonized, on the independent Spinout label. Other band members included Eddie Angel (guitarist for Los Straitjackets), Remi Gits, and Billy Favata of Torturing Elvis.

Lyrics

A Bebop Baby A Bebop Baby
A Bebop Baby she's the gal for me
She's got plenty of rhythm got plenty of jive
And when we dance I really come alive
My love for her is so tender and sweet
My heart starts pounding every time we meet
My Bebop Baby still in her teens
Just as sweet as she can be
My Bebop Baby in her old blue jeans
Is the Bebop Baby for me
A Bebop Baby for me
A Bebop Baby A Bebop Baby
A Bebop Baby she's the gal for me
I'm gonna find her tonight
I'm gonna have a time
I want that baby to be mine all mine
A big day is comin' for my baby and me
The day she says she belongs to me
My Bebop Baby still in her teens
Just as sweet as she can be
My Bebop Baby in her old blue jeans
Is the Bebop Baby for me
