The Little Black Egg with the Little White Speck by Wayne Logiudice & The Kommotions; The Nightcrawlers; Eva; and others

APB: Searching for “The Little Black Egg with the Little White Speck" by the Kommotions ( Wayne Logiudice, Emory Gordy, Jr., Rick Al Sheppard, Barry Bailey, Rick Bear and Harry H. ) The song was apparently written by Chuck Conlon one of the Daytona Beach based Nightcrawlers … another band that should have been included in the book. We assume that they covered, “Midnight Hour”, “My, Girl”, etc, etc.) which are prerequisites .

The song was a regional hit for the Nightcrawlers of Daytona Beach , Florida 10/65 through 4/67, but it never hit in enough areas at the same time to get any higher than #85 in Billboard.


The Little Black Egg
(Chuck Conlon)

I don't care what they say
I'm gonna keep it anyway
I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg with the little white specks
I found it in a tree
Just the other day
And now it's mine, all mine
They won't take it away


Here comes Mary, here comes Lee
I'll bet what they want to see
I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg with the little white specks

Oh, goldurn, what can I do?
The little black egg's gonna tell on you
I won't let them stretch their necks
To see my little black egg with the little white specks


Help us find a copy of the record by Wayne Logiudice & The Kommotions, recorded in Atlanta in 1965 at Lefevre Studios.

I´ve got that one, but on vinyl only alas - on a great sixties compilation called Ear Piercing Punk. If you´re anywhere near you´re welcome to drop by and record it.
