The Devotions were formed in 1960, in Astoria (a borough of Queens, New York City), originally as a sextet. Soon they were pared down to a quintet, consisting of Ray Sanchez (bass vocalist), Bob Hovorka, Bob Weinbrod and the brothers Frank and Joe Pardo. The group is best known for the novelty song, "Rip Van Winkle" which failed to chart the first two times it was released, but finally caught on after it was reissued in January, 1964, peaking at #36 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts in the midst of Beatlemania. Members: Ray Sanchez, Bob Weibrod, Bob Havorka, Joe Pardo, Frank Pardo
