Biography

The Platters were a vocal group formed in LA in 1953. Their transformation from doo-wop to pop and rock and roll helped bridge the gap between tin pan alley and the modern era of pop music.

The Platters had a brief and fairly low-key career before they were taken under the wing of producer and songwriter Buck Ram. Ram added a female vocalist Zola Taylor and made Tony Williams the group’s lead… Read more in Amazon's The Platters Store

5.0 out of 5 stars The Quintessential Platters CD, April 1, 2009
This review is from: The Platters - Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
What a group! The Platters were the classiest of the "Doo-Wop" groups but were so much more than just Doo-Wop. The earliest Platters were the best before personnel changes started happening, but all the songs on this CD are true classics with excellent solos, back-up vocals and superb harmony. Makes you want to grab your lover and dance in the dark!

5.0 out of 5 stars Truly Greatest Hits!, February 20, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Platters - Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
This collection is everything you want, and more! "Only You", "The Great Pretender", "Magic Touch", "Twilight Time" - and 16 more super songs from this super group. A cold night, warm fire, good drink, dog asleep on the rug at your feet, and The Platters serenading - who could ask for more?!?

5.0 out of 5 stars The very Best of the Platters, January 26, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Platters - Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
The Platters were one of the best vocal groups in the 50s-period. Tony Williams, their lead singer, had one of the best doo-wop voices ever. You should check them out for no other reason then his voice.
