Besides Bobby Orlando, who figured in all releases of the group, there were different session singers and models used for each release.
Throughout its existence, Oh Romeo was managed by Joseph Lodato and Lee Borden, who worked in labels associated with Bobby Orlando.
Bobby Orlando was responsible for writing the lyrics of the group. While some of the lyrics were published under his name, others were published under the Orlando pseudonym "C. Shore". C. Chase (Clifton "Jiggs" Chase) cowrote "Saving Myself for the One that I Love" with Bobby Orlando.
During its active years, Oh Romeo toured the US and Latin America, [1] enjoying significant popularity in Latin America, specially in Chile [2] and Mexico. [3]
