Lewis Lymon, the brother of Frankie Lymon of the Teenagers, died on Tuesday June 9, 2013 at his Las Vegas home. He was 69.
When Frankie and his group the Teenagers struck it big with Why Do Fools Fall in Love in 1956, brother Lewis got the itch to try and duplicate the success. He formed the group the Teenchords with Ralph Vaughan, Rossilio Rocca, Lyndon Harold and David Little who were soon signed to Bobby Robinson's new Fury label on the strength of the Lymon name.
