Description:
The Cadets, hailing from Los Angeles, delivered an unforgettable twist on 1950s doo-wop with their song “Stranded in the Jungle.” Sung with tongue-in-cheek flair and accompanied by spoken “jungle” sound effects, it became a novelty hit that contrasted with the era’s smoother R&B stylings. Paired with the heartfelt B-side “I Want You,” this 45 captures both the lighthearted and romantic sides of classic vocal group artistry—great for collectors chasing authentic mid-century West Coast doo-wop.
