Synthesized from community quiz data
Fans were totally split on who founded The Drifters — exactly 50% correctly named Clyde McPhatter as the original lead singer, while the other 50% were convinced it was Johnny Moore, a vocalist who joined much later in the group's story.
Fans who nailed the voice behind 'Under the Boardwalk' (Johnny Moore) stumbled just as hard on which album it came from — both questions scored only 25% correct, revealing a fascinating gap where fans recognize the sound but lose the plot on the deeper Drifters catalog.

Q:Which Drifters album title tricked the most fans?
A:75% wrongly picked 'The Sons of Mrs Righteous' as the band's first studio album.
The real answer? 'Save the Last Dance for Me.' Fans clearly know the hits better than the album titles — classic casual listener trap!
Q:Which Burt Bacharach Drifters hit did fans most often get wrong?
A:50% guessed 'This Magic Moment,' but the correct answer — 'Please Stay' — got 0% of the vote.
Nobody picked the right answer! Fans assumed the bigger hit, not the deeper cut. Bacharach clearly still has some secrets to reveal.
