Larry Chance was the driving force behind the group's formation and success. Chance grew up in Philadelphia and attended high school with Chubby Checker, Frankie Avalon, and Danny Rapp of Danny & the Juniors. But it was not until 1957 that he moved with his parents to the Bronx after high school, that his musical career took off.
Chance formed a group at the Tecumsa Social Club, known as the Hi-Hatters. The group was Chance, Bob Del Din, Eddie Harder, Larry Palombo and John Wray. Later, in 1961, the Earls lost their original member Larry Palombo in an army skydiving accident. In 1961, Rome released the Earls' first record – "Life is But a Dream" (Rome 101 – 1961) The group then performed with Murray the K and on Dick Clark's American Bandstand show.
In 1962, the group hooked up with Stan Vincent and recorded "Remember Then" for Old Town Records (Old Town 1130). It was a hit, peaking at #24 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1963. Chance co-wrote the group's next single The group scored another hit in 1963 on Old Town with "Eyes" (Old Town 1141). Later, a demo "I Believe" was released (Old Town 1149–1963) .I Believe" became a much bigger record from the 1970s onward as it received heavy airplay on NYC oldies radio.
In 1989, they were on Broadway performing in the original production of A Bronx Tale, a one man play by Chazz Palminteri.A Bronx Tale. They received a BMI Award of Recognition of a Musical Work. LarryChanceandtheEarls.com
