Storm withBilly Vaughn. The two wrote “You’re My Baby Doll” and performed it on Storm’s television show in 1958.

InGallatin,Tennessee, in November 1954, a 10-year-old girl, Linda Wood, was watching Storm on a Sunday nighttelevisionvariety show,NBC’sColgate Comedy Hour, hosted byGordon MacRae, singing one of the popular songs of the day.

Linda’s father asked her who was singing and was told it was Gale Storm fromMy Little Margie. Linda’s fatherRandy Woodwas president ofDot Records, and he liked Storm so much that he called to sign her before the end of the television show. Her first record, “I Hear You Knockin'”, acover versionof arhythm and blueshit bySmiley Lewis, sold over a million copies.[6]

The follow-up was a two-sided hit, with Storm coveringDean Martin’s “Memories Are Made of This” backed with her cover ofGloria Mann’s “Teen Age Prayer”. That was followed by a hit cover ofFrankie Lymon’s “Why Do Fools Fall in Love”. Storm’s subsequent record sales began to slide but soon rebounded with a cover of her own labelmateBonnie Guitar’s haunting ballad “Dark Moon” that went to No. 4 on theBillboardHot 100.[citation needed]Storm had several other hits and headlined inLas Vegasand appeared in numerous stage plays. Storm recorded for only about two years with Dot and then gave up recording because of her husband’s concerns with the time she had to devote to that career.
