The Jive Five

The Jive Five were an American doo-wop group. They are best known for their 1961 hit single "My True Story" and their work on ID jingles for the Nickelodeon network in the late 1980s, which would be reused until 1992. Their classic Doo-Wop recordings of "My True Story" (1961) and "Beggin' You Please" (1962) were among the best (and last) of the modern Doo-Wop era, which lasted roughly from 1954 to 1962. The Doo-Wop era, including the so called "girl groups", was preempted by the "British Invasion", which began in early 1964.
