This is a pleasant collection of a range of great 1950's labels building towards hit material with very worthy groups.

Might want to edit the dead air out of your show. Just a thought. Some good tunes you chose. Not sure they all qualify as "doo-wop," but good nevertheless.
@greenchevy57644 ай бұрын
Josephgoldbach2109 Many of the records in this comp are styles that have elements of doowop or are styles that lead to it’s existence and also what became of it. While not all solemnly doowop, they are all very important in the history of the style itself!

Hey williamhepfer8956, From what I can find, he actually was! Check out this link to the Discogs page with the groups history. He’s also in the photo of the group in lower middle row. Take a look! 😁 www.discogs.com/artist/2115449-The-Five-Crowns?anv=The%20Crowns%20(Lead%20Vocal%20Ben%20E.%20King)&filter_anv=1

I am just reading up on this as well. It’s tricky because there are multiple sources that talk about him being an “original bember”. However, I just came across one talking about how he didn’t join until 1955. Thanks for your help, it’s nice to know that there are other people out there that know about these things as well 😅

Hey John! We have chatted before via Discogs. You have a very fine collection that shares a lot in common with mine! Although, I remember you said you had donated some. So nice to hear from you again! Yes, I will look into playing these on a future show for sure! I need to figure out how to get the audio but from a different place or maybe even get some of the records themselves. In the meantime, happy listening! Thanks 😊
