Carlo Mastrangelo

The singles "Baby Doll"[5] and "Little Orphan Girl",[6] received considerable airplay in Florida and a few other states, but didn't make the national charts.

"Ring-A-Ling",[7] a tune which he overdubbed catchy bass vocals to, was a favorite of New York disc jockey Murray the K. He featured it on his weekly "Record Review Board Contest", February 12, 1964, and it was the clear winner.

Produced by "DiMont Music", Mastrangelo played drums and DiMucci contributed guitar to reduce the need for additional session musicians.

During their brief reunion they appeared on the popular "Clay Cole Show" debuting "Berimbau" and "My Girl The Month of May", and occasionally performed at local New York City clubs such as "The Mardi Gras" on Staten Island (April 29, 1967) before disbanding.

Subsequent releases included the bubblegum rock, Ernie Maresca produced, "Shoo-Fly Pie & Apple Pan Dowdy" on Tower Records, followed by a progressive version of the Peggy Lee classic "Fever" and "Let There Be Love" on the Raftis label.

After Pulse disbanded, Mastrangelo formed and sang lead for The Midnite Sun, a popular New York City area nightclub band.

Members included fellow ex-Pulse bassist Kenny Sambolin, lead guitarist Bobby Coleman, backup vocalist Judy Purse, and Mastrangelo's cousin Joey DeMaria on drums.

Mastrangelo, D'Aleo, Milano, and DiMucci reunited in New York City on June 2, 1972, for a Richard Nader "Rock and Roll Revival" concert.

The two former lead singers of The Belmonts continued to collaborate on many of DiMucci's recordings and live performances from the 1980s until Mastrangelo's death in April 2016 at the age of 78.
