*******************************************************
This is so great. I didn't know Tom Hanks father was the lead singer of the Diamonds. THIS WILL PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE,
Tom Hanks Father:
If you were alive in 1957, and old enough to enjoy Rock and Roll, you will probably remember the group, "The Diamonds" who had just launched their super hit "Little Darlin' ". For you that are too young to remember - it was a time when the performers were happy, enjoying themselves, respecting their fans, dressed appropriately and their lyrics could be understood.
They did not feel obligated to scream, eat the microphone, mumble inaudible lyrics or trash the set. In 1957, The Diamonds had a hit with "Little Darlin". 47 years later, they were requested to perform at Atlantic City ...
This link leads to both performances. Watch the first one then scroll down for the new one 47 years later. Tom Hanks father is much better looking than Tom, and even better looking with age. In the linked videos Tom Hank's father is the lead singer on the left. He still has it! Hope you enjoy.
47 years apart 2 Performances --

You have been scammed.



Analysis: Nice story, but completely false. Tom Hanks' father was never a singer, let alone a member of The Diamonds, a Canadian vocal group famous in the late fifties and early sixties for such Top 40 hits as "Little Darlin'" and "The Stroll."

The Diamonds' original lead singer was Dave Somerville, a native of Ontario, Canada with no known familial connection to Mr. Hanks. He's alive and well, and still performing as "Diamond Dave Somerville." (The other original members were Ted Kowalski, Phil Levitt, and Bill Reed, none of whom fathered Tom Hanks.)

Scam yes! This has been floating around with other internet hoaxes since Jan 2012.

That's one of the best examples of the doo wop music I so love.
If there are any other doo wop fans out there, you'll wanna know that Aaron Neville has gone back to his roots and revealed doo wop was the music he loved too...
