THAT’S THE WAY IT GOES, The Five Jades, Clifton #73 1984
Flipside: FALLING IN LOVE – Here is another really great cover version from my collection. It is one of Mrs. Mints favorite songs so I am dedicating it to her today for Valentine’s Day.
The Five Jades all hailed from the Bronx New York. Group members are Anthony Hernandez, Dennis Cerrato, Frankie Izquierdo, Alfred Rivera and Hector Rosado Jr. “THAT’S THE WAY IT GOES” was originally recorded by The Harptones Rama #203 - 1956 and was written by Harptones’ founder, the late, great Raoul Cita.
This version by The Five Jades was produced by the late Ronnie Italiano (known as Ronnie I) (Clifton Music) He opened his CLIFTON MUSIC store in 1972 and it closed in 2012.
Ronnie I started U.G.H.A. in 1976 which created a resurgence of interest in vocal groups when at that time many vocal groups were "off the grid" and forgotten. United in Group Harmony Association was an organization dedicated to the preservation of vocal group harmony. U.G.H.A. provided the opportunity to see the groups and hear the music that was seldom or never heard on commercial radio. Ronnie I created the first "Hall of Fame" for vocal groups and balanced running his record store, radio show, record label, U.G.H.A. and promoting concerts and still found time to produce and record many vocal acts who might never have had any recordings. In addition, he was responsible for having reunited many acts for his U.G.H.A. shows who may never have ever sung together again!
He has produced and released so many recordings by so many artists that it's impossible to list them here. His sincere dedication to the vocal acts from the 1950's and 1960's was a labor of love.
Although, Ronnie I is no longer with us, his many contributions and efforts have left his indelible mark on doowop music forever. He was a very dear friend and he is sadly missed.
Enjoy this great cover version of "THAT’S THE WAY IT GOES" by The Five Jades. HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY 2017!
