The Penguins were an American doo-wop group of the 1950s and early 1960s, best remembered for their only Top 40 hit, " Earth Angel ( Will You Be Mine )", which was one of the first rhythm and blues hits to cross over to the pop charts.

The song peaked at # 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, but had a three-week run at # 1 on the R & B chart.
