The 60s pop outfit Brooklyn Bridge was led by Johnny Maestro, the former frontman of the Crests. The group was formed on Long Island in 1968 from the ashes of local rivals the Del-Satins (a vocal quartet including Maestro, Fred Ferrara, Mike Gregorio and Les Cauchi) and the Rhythm Method (musical director Tom Sullivan, guitarist Jim Macioce, organist Carolyn Woods, bassist Jim Rosica, trumpeter Shelly Davis, saxophonist Joe Ruvio and drummer Artie Cantanzarita). Upon joining forces as the Brooklyn Bridge, the group issued their self-titled debut album in 1969, scoring their first Top Five hit with the Jimmy Webb composition Worst that Could Happen. Subsequent singles like Blessed Is the Rain and Your Husband—My Wife failed to recapture the debuts success, however, and albums like The Second Brooklyn Bridge and 1970s Day Is Done also fared poorly; while the groups contract with the Buddah label ended in the wake of 1972s Bridge in Blue, they continued performing live throughout the decades to follow, with Maestro, Ferrara, Cauchi and Rosica remaining from the original lineup in the 90s.
