Biography
The Clovers, an American R&B/doo-wop vocal group, were formed in Washington D.C. in 1946 by Harold Lucas, Billy Shelton, Thomas Woods, and John "Buddy" Bailey under the name The Four Clovers. The group's early career included performances at various talent contests and their first single, "Yes Sir, That's My Baby" / "When You Come Back to Me", released in 1950 with Rainbow Records. In February 1951, they signed with Atlantic Records and began recording, achieving their first top 10 hit with "Don't You Know I Love You". The Clovers' success continued with hits like "Fool, Fool, Fool" (1951), "Ting-A-Ling" (1952), and "Blue Velvet" (1955). In 1959, under United Artists Records, they released their most notable single, "Love Potion No. 9", which peaked at number 23 on the Billboard Hot 100. The group faced internal changes and label shifts throughout the early 1960s, leading to various line-up alterations and new recordings with different labels. Despite attempts to reunite and capitalise on the success of "Love Potion No. 9" by other artists, The Clovers disbanded in 1965.
