Doo-Wop - The R&B Vocal Group Sound 1950-1960


Rating: 5/5

Review:
A cracking set



This is a cracking 3-CD set.  It's a refreshing mixture of very well-known tracks and some real obscurities which forms a very decent guide to R&B-style Doo-Wop in the 1950s.  The digital transfers have been well done and the sound quality is very good.

Frankly, the track list speaks for itself.  Serious collectors will probably have these tracks (although perhaps not all of them); I'm a more casual enthusiast with quite a few of these elsewhere in my collection but there's a whole lot here I didn't know and which I'm very glad to have.  It's terrific music and a source of huge pleasure.  Very warmly recommended.
