About this listen
Jerome Gourdine (born January 8, 1941, known as Little Anthony, is an American singer, best known for leading Little Anthony and the Imperials.
He formed The Duponts, who later renamed to Little Anthony and the Imperials. In 1959, they recorded "Shimmy, Shimmy, Ko-Ko-Bop", which sold over one million copies. Gourdine is nicknamed "Little Anthony" despite the fact he is 5ft 9in. Gourdine left the Imperials in 1961 to go solo before returning in 1963. Anthony reformed the Imperials many years later and still fronts the group as the only original member. The Imperials were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on April 4, 2009. Gourdine released an autobiography titled "My Journey, My Destiny".
