| We've thought of that one. We also discovered that a group called
the Ivy League also recorded it, but that's not the correct answer
either.

Kid Congo (as the note diverses even further) was last spotted being a Bad Seed
with Nick Cave. Don't think they did Poison Ivy though...

| 846.13 | OH Boy:I'll post a list if I remember! | KURMA::ISUTHERLAND | | Tue Jun 11 1991 09:58 | 8 |

According to the Guiness book of Hit Singles,only the three groups you
mentioned,(i.e.The Paramounts,The Coasters and the lambrettas),had
chart success with Poison ivy,(in Gt.Britain).
As for Oh Boy,if I remember i'll have a look tonight,and
post a list tomorrow.But I'm pretty sure that the Brotherhood of Man
one was a completely different version from the one to which you refer,and
was called something like,Oh Boy(The mood I'm in).

Here in the states it was "Poison Ivy" by The Coasters on the Atco
label that was a gold hit in August of 1959. The words and music
were written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller.
"Oh, Boy!" was popularized by The Crickets on the Brunswick label
and became a hit in November of 1957. The words and music of this
song were written by Buddy Holly and Norman Petty.
