Although they had personnel changes through the years, Naomi And The Boys would be best remembered for its classic line-up of Naomi Suriya, her brother Robert, Moses Tay, Alphonso Soosay and Peter Thomas.Naomi And The Boys had hits with Happy Happy Birthday Baby, It's All Over, I Know and many more, and Robert proved himself to be a prolific composer, writing most of the band's songs. Kevin and Chris look back at the band that, together with The Crescendos and The Quests, made up the "Big Three" of Singapore 60s music.LinksGet in touch and get updates about Lion City Rock on The Fast Colors' Facebook and Instagram pagesHappy Happy Birthday BabyIt's All OverI KnowThe Best of Naomi (album, released 1968)Someone uploaded the Naomi-led songs featured in Remembering...
