A belated R.I.P., to Dave Somerville. The Diamonds weren't innovative or even important, but they certainly did more respectful covers of rock and roll songs than contemporaries like The Crew Cuts and Pat Boone. I especially enjoy the Diamonds' treatment of The Stroll, which was used so memorably at the finale of the 1986 horror flick Night of the Creeps.
