CHARLENE:
Lead vocal on "Salty Dog"
THE BOYS:
Not alot can be said about the Darling boys that hasn’t been said already. You’ve got the quiet one, the quiet one, the quiet one, and the quiet one.
Aside from their singin’ the boys only talk once and this is in "The Darling’s Are Coming."
The Boys are terrible cooks. Briscoe testifies to this in "Briscoe Declares for Aunt Bee."
Influences
