Paul Petersen - The Cheerleader (1963)

Charted at #78 on Billboard Hot 100 in November 1963. Paul's last Billboard charting single was this peppy tribute to cheerleaders, and the tribulations of dating one. The girls in the photos are all authentic cheerleaders from 1963; high school, college and university levels (specific credits below). This single was a bigger hit in some local markets, among them, Miami, Florida, where it went Top 10, and the weather is always right for cheerleading! I wonder if this is the only Top 40 hit about cheerleaders. Original Billboard review: "Strong teen item here that dovetails with the football season. Exciting side has swing, ya-ya chorus, and big sound that should propel it upward." In order, the pictures depict (all from 1963): The Kilgore College Cheerleaders on the Saturday Evening Post The O.W. Holmes Cheerleaders from South Oak Cliff High School in Dallas, Texas (top: Karen Benton, Tanis Cook, Donna Vail, Carolyn Scroggins.
