Charlie Gracie was instrumental in the formation of the Philadelphia rock'n'roll scene. By 1956, Philadelphia had given birth to the new Cameo record label. It's founders, in search of a strong talent signed Charlie later that year. With a $600.00 budget, this new union went into the studio to record a single that would forever change their lives. The record, "Butterfly" backed with "Ninety Nine Ways" became a monster hit reaching the number one position all across America. Charlie received a gold disc for the two million plus sales and became the first native Philadelphia rock star to achieve international success.
