Mickey Lee Lane
Mickey Lee Lane (born Sholom Mayer Schreiber; February 2, 1941, Rochester, New York – March 18, 2011) was an American rock and roll songwriter and arranger. Lane got a job in the Brill Building as a songwriter in the 1950s, working with Neil Sedaka as a touring pianist and Bill Haley as a songwriter. In addition, he released some singles on Brunswick Records and Swan Records in the 1950s and 1960s; one of them, "Shaggy Dog", became a hit and peaked at #38 on the Billboard Hot 100. His tune "Hey Sah-Lo-Ney" was covered by British group The Action, The Detroit Cobras (retitled "Hey Sailor") and Ronnie Spector on her solo album The Last of the Rock Stars. Lane continued working as a recording engineer from the late 1960s into the 1990s. Toward the end of the century, a compilation disc entitled Rockin' On...And Beyond was released, which featured both his previous singles and unreleased material. Discography
