The Hey Paula Story

On October 6, 1962, two college students from an obscure college in West Texas, drove to Ft. Worth and dropped in, unannounced, at a small recording studio. When the scheduled artist failed to appear, the two students were given the opportunity to record their song. A few months later “Hey, Paul” was at the top of the charts in the U.S., Europe, Japan, and anywhere in the world there were radio stations playing American music. This is the true story of how one song came to be, and how something so simple can change the lives of so many.
