"Searchin" is a song written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller specifically for the Coasters. Atco Records released it as a single in March 1957, which topped the R&B Chart for twelve weeks. It also reached number three on the Billboard singles chart.
Although the Coasters had previously done well on the rhythm and blues charts, "Searchin" (along with "Young Blood" on the flip side) sparked the group's rock and roll fame.
