    "Bad Motorcycle" From out of Philadelphia, Ann & Lillian Storey recorded this ode to one cool cat, using one of Jocko Henderson's famous catch phrases - That's one bad motorcycle! That meant something (that guy or this record, for that matter) was good.

     

    They recorded it for Al Browne's Peak label under the name The Twinkles. It was picked up by Bernie Lowe and Kal Mann's Cameo powerhouse for national distribution after they had changed their name to the Storey Sisters.  The 1958 re-release hit #45 on Billboard’s pop charts.

    Are the Storey sisters still alive? What ever happened to them after the 1950s?
