The Coasters were assigned to the songwriting and production team of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, and together they set about to make hit records. ÒDown in Mexico,Ó the CoasterÕs first single, was a solid success, selling a million copies, but it was far more prominent on the rhythm and blues charts than on the pop ones.
