Rondo, born in Ware, Massachusetts, first became popular following the 1956 release of his rendition of the song "Two Different Worlds". Released by Jubilee Records in October 1956, the song spent three months on the Billboardchart, peaking at #11. It eventually went on to sell in excess of a million copies, and established Rondo at a time when music of his genre was facing strong competition from rock and roll. Among his television appearances was a 1957 appearance on the TV game show, To Tell the Truth.
Because of the success of "Two Different Worlds", Jubilee quickly followed it up with another release, a double A-side, "The Love I Never Had" and a cover of Elvis Presley's song, "Don't". However, this fared less well, and a third single, "On Forgotten Street" also failed to make an impact.
Changing tempo in 1957, his next release was a cheerful number, "White Silver Sands", written by Red Matthews, and which provided him with a #7 chart hit, The song actually became Jubilee's biggest selling hit, and another million-seller, but the gold disc winning "White Silver Sands" was to be Rondo's last major hit. On the B-side of this record was the jazz classic Stars Fell on Alabama. Other releases followed, including "There's Only You" and "Forsaking All Others", but these barely made it into the charts.
