The Bosstones (also known as The Boss-Tones) were an American musical group who performed in the instrumentally-sparse, a cappella-based harmonic style known as Philadelphia doo-wop. The Bosstones apparently released only one record in their history: "Mope-Itty Mope" b/w "Wings of an Angel" in 1959 on the Boss Records label.[1] The record was a not a national or regional hit (although it did manage to scrape into the playlists of a few stations, such as KIMN in Denver in May of that year). "Mope-Itty Mope" would probably have fallen into complete obscurity except for fact that Mexican border blaster XEAK decided to play it in 1961 -- in fact, they played it over and over for 72 straight hours, stunting its new format: "Extra News", the first 24-hour all-news station in Southern California (and one of the first in the United States). In 1962, The Dovells remade "Mope-itty Mope" as "The Mope-itty Mope Stomp".[2] In 1983, a ska-core band was formed in Boston, also calling themselves The Bosstones; after finding out about the long-defunct group of that name, the newer band changed its name to The Mighty Mighty Bosstones.[3] Notes1. ^{{cite book|author=Dave Thompson|title=Standard Catalog of American Records|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=cWmSCwAAQBAJ&pg=PA148|date=8 April 2016|publisher="F+W Media, Inc."|isbn=978-1-4402-4628-9|pages=148–}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Bosstones, The}}2. ^{{cite book|author1=Barry Blinderman|author2=Paul Laffoley|author3=University of Colorado at Colorado Springs.
