Editorial Reviews

From street corners and front porches come some of the most influential music of all time! Doo Wop set the stage for rock 'n' roll, R&B, and pop music traditions that continue today. Now, here's a wonderfully nostalgic collector's set of doo-wop music from the '50s and '60s featuring over 145 memorable hits. Plus, it comes with a bonus DVD with 21 live performances.

I bought these for my husband for Christmas. We are babyboomers and this music covers us from our preteen years when we were watching our older sisters rocking out to these tunes to our high school years. We have had more fun playing these while driving around. Singing along and reminiscing about old times. It was just like putting the 45's on the turntable and dancing around the house driving my parents crazy. The quality of the CD's is great and they managed to include all the great hits of that era. I would recommend this set to all Babyboomers!

This is a great selection of songs from the Doo Wop era. You can't listen to it without remembering what you were doing way back when, back in the day or however you refer to your past. The memories will be better tan the reality when you visit them accompanied by these tunes.
