Sh-Boom The California Raisins (US)

Doubtless The California Raisins are best remembered for their 1988 rendition of the Motown classic “I Heard it Through the Grapevine,” but they also did a cover of “Sh-Boom.”

“Sh-Boom” has had a complicated relationship with regional foodstuffs. Iowans of a certain age can tell you that the song was used as a jingle in television commercials hawking Dubuque Hams.
