BUZZ CLIFFORD played guitar as a child and won several talent competitions as a teenager. He signed to Bow Records at age 15, releasing a few singles but finding no success. After signing with Columbia Records, he released the single Hello Mr. Moonlight, which did not chart. The follow-up, Baby Sittin Boogie/Driftwood (though Driftwood was technically the B-side the record tends to be regarded as a double-A-side), became a crossover hit in the U.S. in 1961, peaking at #6 on the Billboard Hot 100, #27 R&B, and #28 Country.[1] The record went on to sell over one million copies, and as a result of its success, Columbia tried to groom Clifford as a heartthrob pop singer. He appeared on TV with Perry Como and Merv Griffin and on American Bandstand, and toured the United Kingdom with Freddy Cannon and Dion. THE BANDINI MOUNTAINEERS are the masters of Punk Folk. With the instrumentation of Waldzither, Ukelele, Cello, and Musical Saw they write their own songs in the tradition of the Fugs and Phil Ochs as well as doing folk renditions of punk songs by bands like Tex and the Horseheads.
