● CD $28.98 |
JSP enters the vocal group stakes with this four CD
set with 104 tracks presented chronologically. The first disc
features the roots of the doo-wop sound covering recordings from
1932 through 1950 by The Three Keys, Mills Brothers, Ink Spots,
Three Barons, Four Tunes, Melody Masters, Whispers, Three Riffs and
more. The second disc highlights the transition from the older jump
and pop style to a more R&B influenced style in the period 1951
through 1953 with tracks by The Royales, Cardinals, Mel-O-Dots,
Marylanders, Five Sharps (their priceless Stormy Weather),
The Hornets, Checkers, Du Droppers, Moonglows, etc. The final discs
present the fully fledged doo-wop style with recordings from 1953
through 1955 by The Lamplighters, Crickets, Cookies, Chords,
Teardrops, Robins, Topps, Eagles, Orchids, Five Royales, Marigolds,
Hollywood Flames, Thunderbirds, Grady Chapman & The Suedes, The
Hearts, Nutmegs, Kansas City Tomcats and more. Booklets have
recording dates, personnel and brief notes by Neil Slaven. Diehard
doo-wop fans will have everything here but this set provides a great
introduction to this import musical genre. It's too bad that around
25% of the tracks are duplicated on the better produced Proper BOX
44 ("Dawn Of Doo-Wop" - $24.98) and BOX 79 ("Doo-Wop Delights"-
$24.98). Still, between the three sets you can get a lot of great
music at a very reasonable price.
