Someone started a parallel article (with title misspelled). Here's the content if anyone wants to use it.

Lil Ceaser and the Romans were a doo-wop founded in the 50's in Los Angeles. The band consisted of David Caesar Johnson, Leroy Sanders (bass), Johnny O'Simmons and Early Harris (both tenors). The group first recorded in 1959. They were originally called the Cubans but when Cuba underwent a political revolution that year the group became the Upfronts. Two years later they met songwriter Paul Politi, who had penned a song called "Those Oldies But Goodies (Remind Me Of You)". After personnel changes they became Little Caesar And The Romans with a gimmick of dressing up in togas and sandals and recorded Politi's ballad for Del-Fi Records. S It reached the US Top 10 and they followed with one other minor hit single, "Hully Gully Again", before disbanding in 1962. In 1975, Johnson put together a new Little Caesar And The Romans and recorded a single called "Disco Hully Gully". For a while they toured as Marvin Gaye's opening.
