VA- The Ultimate Doo Wop Collection

Label: Not Now Music

Released 2016

The vocal style known as doo-wop that developed on the streets of New York and other American cities immediately after World War II is one of the best-loved in popular music. The onomatopoeic name of the style, plus the exotically christened groups that practised it, evokes the era before a single note is heard. Enjoy this excellent 3 CD set including The Diamonds, The Duprees and The Drifters.
