Nite Owl (1955)


Los Angeles raised Anthony Penia Allan cut one of the all time great 45s of doo-wop, "Nite Owl", at his first important recording session. It was immediately huge in L.A. and was about to break out nationally when Anthony decided to leave Specialty....and move to another label. Despite having a hit on its hands Specialty decided not to support the record....due to this the single never charted.

The group was formed in Harlem, New York in 1964 as a trio called The Poets, composed of lead singer Donald McPherson, Luther Simmons Jr. and Panama born Tony Silvester. They made their first recordings for Leiber & Stoller's Red Bird label, but soon changed their name to The Insiders and signed with RCA. After a couple of singles they changed there name once again in 1968, this time permanently to The Main Ingredient, taking their name from a coke bottle.
