which reached No. 19. They also recorded a version of the Bobby Rydell hit "The Cha-Cha-Cha", which includes the line "When you see the Wah-Watusi, you go a-ha-ha-ha," poking fun at their own hit. Davis left the group in August 1963 and Caldwell quit the group in 1964, Sandy Person replaced Davis. A short-lived stint by Yvonne Young was followed by original Teenette, Audrey Brickley, Shirley's sister. By then, the group's popularity had waned in the United States. They continued to perform into the late 1960s with success in the UK. They disbanded in 1968 after Hightower decided to stay in England after a tour. Hightower had a successful career as a soloist and as an in-demand session singer, backing Joe Cocker, John Holt and other artists. She married record producer Ian Green. In later years, Davis married and found work as an executive secretary, whilst Caldwell became a shop steward of the bus drivers' trade union, and then became the administrator of the union's legal fund in Philadelphia and served on the Philadelphia Board of Education for 29 years. In 1988, Caldwell and Davis re-formed the group with two new members and performed live on the oldies circuit until Davis' death in 1993. On October 13, 1977, Shirley Brickley was shot dead by an intruder in her home in Philadelphia. Marlena Davis died of lung cancer on February 27, 1993 (aged 48). Audrey Brickley died of acute respiratory distress syndrome on July 3, 2005 (aged 58). Rosetta Hightower Green died in Clapham, London, on August 2, 2014, at the age of 70. Caldwell and Jean Brickley still perform as the Orlons with two of Caldwell's cousins, Alberta Crump and Madeline Morris. In March 2012, Caldwell and Brickley took part in the benefit single "Mull of Kintyre", featuring Charlie Gracie with Clutch Cargo. Awards "The Wah-Watusi," "Don't Hang Up," and "South Street" each sold over one million copies and were awarded gold disc status.
