Exellent early r&b doo wop from Harlem.......2006-05-13

This cd(the 1st in a series of 2) is an exellent way to get introduced to early 50's doo wop music. This cd has 18 exellent selections of Doo Wop from the Big Apple(namely Harlem), all of them are black groups that sound closer to sizzling r&b burners rather than sappy doo wop. This is the r&b/jazzier, more rhythmic less commercial brand of doo wop, it is mostly gentle, yet swinging. There is a smokey sound here, honking saxaphones, and sensious sounds, and these are not the same songs recycled on other comps. This is a great cd of r&b doo wop. This is the finest doo wop set I've seen, and you can't beat the price.

FOR DANCERS IN LOVE.......2003-03-29

This album is not recommended unless you have a guy or girl who loves you so much and would love to dance,especially slowdance. It's like a high school senior attending the prom. Just imagine the HS senior elegantly dressed as is his/her date. They're holding each other,gently swaying to music like the music on this album. It's so beautiful. But it should not be just listened to. I wouldn't want to play this CD without my girlfriend/wife dancing with me.

If you remember getting what we thought was a "group" together, and were able to get into an apartment building and sing in the "hall-way", all the songs on this CD will give you nothing but memories. Memories of Bay-15, in Coney Island, and trying to impress the "chicks" with what you thought was singing. I remember seeing many of the artists' on this CD at some of the clubs on Long Island. Buy it, you'll love it.
