This is a wonderful collection of Doo-Wop classics that are truly "Oldies But Goodies." The best thing about this collection is that the versions of the songs are done by the original artists and are the familiar versions you are used to hearing on the radio. Too often you buy oldies Cds hoping to hear the familiar versions and instead you get a cover version, a live version or some outtake that doesn't sound nearly as good as the one that you are used to hearing on the radio and have grown to love. This is a great set and I highly recommend it. Here is the tracklisting for the 3-disc set:
