First off, sorry I have been gone for a while. I have been on vacation so I have been unable to post any more of my series. However, I did have time to put together this video on Doo-Wop music.
Doo-wop (sometimes doo-wopp) is a style of vocal-based rhythm and blues music developed in African American communities in the 1940s, achieving mainstream popularity in the 1950s and early 1960s. Built upon vocal harmony, doo-wop was one of the most mainstream, pop-oriented R&B styles of the time. After finish this video I came to the conclusion that doo-wop didn't evolve much, but it's still nice to have all the top doo-wop songs wrapped up into one video.
Song list:
1953 The Orioles - Crying in the Chapel 0:05
1954 The Crew Cuts - Sh-Boom 0:30
1954 The Chords - Sh-Boom 0:55
1954 The Penguins - Earth Angel (Will You Be Mine) 1:20
1955 The Moonglows - Sincerely 1:45
1955 The Platters - The Great Pretender 2:10
1955 The Platters - Only You 2:35
1956 The Five Satins - In the Still of the Nite 3:00
1956 Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers - Why Do Fools Fall in Love? 3:25
1957 The Dominoes with Billy Ward - Star Dust 3:50
1957 Danny & The Juniors - At the Hop 4:15
1958 The Platters - Twilight Time 4:40
1958 The Platters - Smoke Gets in Your Eyes 5:05
1959 The Flamingos - I Only Have Eyes for You 5:30
1960 The Drifters - Save the Last Dance for Me 5:55
1961 The Marcels - Blue Moon 6:20
1962 Gene Chandler - Duke of Earl 6:45
1962 The Drifters - Up on the Roof 7:10
1963 The Drifters - On Broadway 7:35
1964 The Drifters - Under the Boardwalk 8:00

I'm 79 and sang along with each and every one of these wonderful 50's beauties. I had my radio on every minute I was home as a youth and listened to them on our 9 to midnight local " Cinderella Ballroom" radio show...Jr high rocked with these great songs. Takes me immediately to school dance and that special dance with your first big puppy love. I was amazed I could name the group of each. Thank you for posting this.

And I would sit around listening to these songs. Boy what a memory. I love my brother.he has early demintia now. But I tell his kids. My nephew and niece. Please play these songs. For him .and I'm sure that he will remember something out of all this. Or at least a smile he may want us too see. God bless you brother. I love you very much. Even for my kids. I have brought this memory to carry in their hearts of their uncle. Now and forever.❤❤❤

I agree. This music, a lot of came from Black singers and musicians, did more to integreate this country than all of the laws put together. I was a real demonstration to us that people are people, and not black or white, or dark or light. Unfortunately, today many have forgotten that message or just plain never learned it. In my late years now, I am sometimes ashamed of just how much America has wasted and gone backwards. I pray ever day this will change but, as much as I have searched the Bible, I have not faound the word America.

When you were born in the 80s, had parents that made you listen to hard rock & metal from the 60s & 70s, but you still somehow end up knowing every song on this list. I think it's because there was a big nostalgia for the 50s/60s music & aesthetics in the 80s. I've probably heard all of these songs, plus a ton of Surf Rock, in 80s movies.

I couldn't agree with you more because Doo wop is really about relationships between man and woman and for me, it also was very pure time with respect for one another. Try to get a man today to express his inner feelings of love or loss without thinking of sex first even though God did wire our brains to procreate in a marriage relationship.

Leonard Larrisey I don’t get your comment! I don’t think you watched the whole video. I only seen a couple of white groups. Next time just sit back and enjoy the music!

Hey Nathaniel! I was there in the 1950s Nathaniel! I would say you got it right dude! Most of the songs deserve to be in the top 20! Certainly the Platters are well represented as well as the Five Satins and The Drifters and Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers also. Good choices dude!

I was wondering if you were speaking and Nate Nelson of the Flamingos because his song delivery is one of a kind especially creating the mood as he sings so deep within his beautiful heart!

I grew up listening to the 50's. by the late 60's I was out clubbing and partying. love this old stuff. You can hear the voices instead of only the music as in today's songs.
