Thread Name: The Italian Roots Of Doo Wop
Subject: RE: The Italian Roots Of Doo Wop
Wow, Wow, Wow, Wow, wow! You know, Villan, I recently put together a 5 CD set of my own, following rhythm and blues vocal groups starting with When The Swallows Come Back To Capistrano and ending with a song from Paul Simon's flop broadway musical about the same era... Capeman. I did it Chronologically, and probably a third of the music (at least) is stuff that never made the top 40.

That review was brilliant, and right to the point. My new-found friend is recruiting singers to start a new a capella group. What a kick that would be. I've got a street corner right in fron of our house..
