"Wham Bam " is a 1976 song by the American band Silver , written by country songwriter Rick Giles. It was the only charting song by the group. John Batdorf sings lead vocals.[1]
Background [ edit ]
Arista executives gave the band the song to record, after concluding that none of the other tracks on the album they produced had single potential. Arista head Clive Davis himself co-produced their single.
The single 's title, "Wham Bam", was shown as "Wham Bam Shang-A-Lang", and peaked at No. 16 on the US Billboard Hot 100[2] [3] [4]
Weekly charts [ edit ]
In popular culture [ edit ]
