From Sha Na Na:
Ginger (Pamela Myers, also the show's announcer) didn't get as many chances to sing as the band members did, but when she did, she proved she was equal to the task.
Case in point is this cover of Paul & Paula's seminal "Hey, Paula", partnered with Johnny Contardo.
Overall, the band's covers of 50's & 60's pop classics were on a par with the original material, especially if it's given to Johnny to sing lead.

sha na na over all was on par but that said the songs like sea cruise - book of love- remember then were OUT OF THE PARK. home runs and there were others
Oh, I know. I read the comments on YouTube of fans gushing over Sha Na Na's covers, especially by Johnny. I used to watch the show pretty often back in the day, but no one in their right mind is willing to bring it back on cable. Hmm, I wonder why.....
