Despite the fact that their Four Freshmen style of vocalizing was out of fashion, they achieved four US chart singles on Date, the Columbia Records subsidiary. Their first release and their first hit was "A Symphony For Susan" (number 51, October 1966) and their biggest success came with their original, easy-listening treatment of the Box Tops/Joe Cocker hit "The Letter", which reached number 20 in February 1969.
