    Biography :

    From New York City, the Explorers were a singing group formed by Pete Morrow, the son of the well known band leader and trombonist Buddy Morrow, other members were Dennis Parnell (aka Dennis Lowell), Larry Alpert, Nick Rudd and Tito Carballo. Initially, they got together, rehearsed for many weeks, and did a demo which was shopped around until they got a deal with Coral records and producer, arranger Dick Jacobs.  They did a lot of local "gigs," including the Brooklyn Paramount.

    Coral released 4 singles by the "Explorers" (1 in 1959, 1 in 1960, and 1 in 1961 & 1 in 1963 containing reissues). The 3rd was the only release credited to "Dennis & the Explorers." The reason this release was so credited is that the group was not really the Explorers. Only (Lead Singer) Dennis Parnell (aka Dennis Lowell), and possibly one other member of the group showed up at the October 13, 1961 session. Other singers who happened to be in the studio at the time were used to round out the group.
