DeJohn Sisters

(My Baby Don't Love Me)   No More

The DeJohn Sisters didn't know it at the time, but they inspired the Bonnie Sisters ("Cry Baby") to seek a recording career. After hearing the DeJohn's "No More" on radio the music bug struck the Bonnie's.

On February 12, 1955, the DeJohn Sisters' ("My Baby Don't Love Me) No More" soared to the #6 position on Billboards Pop 100 chart. Dux and Julie DeGiovanni wrote the song with brother, Leo; the Giovanni's changed their surname to DeJohn for professional reasons. Subsequent releases by the De John's, flopped, failing to crack the Pop Top Forty.

Dux and Julie became fascinated with singing while working at Sears & Roebuck, shunning careers at their parents dry cleaning business. Instead, they wanted to sing, become rich, and emulate the success of fellow Chester natives, the Four Aces.

A representative from Epic Records discovered them at the same ethnic club that Decca scouts' found the Four Aces.

Further singles fell to impress, but not because they gave up. After Epic, they recorded for Okeh, Sunbeam, Columbia, Capitol, and United Artist Records. They wrote with each other and others many of the failures, including: "Crazy Song From India," "D Ja Hear What I Say," "Mine Alone," "Twisting On the Bandstand Show," "Wrong Guy," and "Angel Passed By."
