This guy, for reasons that I cannot begin to fathom, went by his first and middle names.
For instance: Joe Frank’s last name is not “Frank.” His name is Joe Frank Carollo. That’s disappointing, since the name is really the most interesting thing about the group.Īnd the name thing gets weirder when you look deeper into the band. There’s plenty of information on Hamilton, Joe Frank And Reynolds out there in the world, but there’s really nothing about how they ended up with such a clumsy-ass band name.

What is even going on in that name? Who made these decisions? Why do Hamilton and Reynolds use only their last names but Joe Frank doesn’t? Why is Joe Frank the one member of the band who gets a first name in there? Shouldn’t there be a second comma? Is this a Crosby, Stills & Nash situation where we’re supposed to know who all three guys are? Did they think this name would trip off the tongue? How many conversations led these people to use this as their professional band name? And none of them has used a name as ugly and ungainly as Hamilton, Joe Frank And Reynolds, the LA soft-rock trio who landed atop the chart for a week in the summer of 1975. In the 61-year history of the Billboard Hot 100, hundreds upon hundreds of artists have scored #1 singles. In The Number Ones, I’m reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart’s beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present.
