"Gene and Debbe were a folk/country duo that had a couple of bottom top 40 hits in late 1967, early 1968","Playboy" and "Go With Me". Unlikely, but true, they were mostly played/heard on top 30 in Northern and Southern California, top 10 there!
"Playboy" hit the edge of top 20, and is a cloying kiss of "Hey Paula" and Mickey and Sylvia's "Love is Strange". It does have the nicety of a fake Chet Aktins/ Everly Bros. guitar solo though. "Go with Me" skipped the edge of a national hit, but was popular with the emerging folk/country base of the Bay Area.
This complilation CD has all the hits + pretty much every song one wants from Gene and Debbe. Gene Thomas went on to write country hits, Debbe Neville, I guess, searched for her missing I."
