The Bobbettes’ first and only Top 40 single, "Mr. Lee" entered the US Pop charts
where it will reach #6. It spent four weeks at #1 on the R&B chart. This made the Bobbettes the first girl group to release a #1 R&B hit that also made the pop
Top 10. The group, which originally formed in Spanish Harlem, New York, in
1955, was first known as "The Harlem Queens".
