Richard Monda - known to music fans as Daddy Dewdrop - had a Top 10 hit in 1971 with Chick-A-Boom (Don't Ya Jes' Love It),
But there's a lot more to his story than just one hit. He's been in entertainment almost of his whole life, including roles in major movies when he was a teen in the early '50s. His biggest role was as a young Eddie Cantor in the The Eddie Cantor Story.
Dick has got a lot of great stories to tell. And we’ve got some of them right here, including...
His experiences in the movie business and why he left it.Starting out in music in record promotion, later becoming a producer and songwriter.The TV cartoon show and the joke that inspired Chick-A-Boom.Seeing his name in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.What he got out of his hit (and what he didn't).What his life is like now.And much more!.
