Music Lovers' Ratings & Reviews:
Based on 10 ratings.
I'm not really sure what to say here. I am of The Beatles generation (9 years old when they hit the US), so I never really listened to Doo Wop. I decided to give it a try in a big way by purchasing this 154 song set. The problem is....there are so many doo Wop collections to choose from...and on Oldies.com, there is a lot of song crossover in the different anthologies. I took a chance on this one. The price is right. As on many budget sets, you get very little info on the music or artists, which is to be expected at such a low price. Honestly, if I had it to do over, I would consult with a major Doo Wop fan. I'm really not sure if this is a good representation of the field in either songs or artists. The sound is only 'OK'. Nowhere is the term "remastered" used in the description or on the packaging. By the time I listen to this entire set, I will know if I want to continue delving in to Doo Wop music...or perhaps this taste is all I want.
So, if you are new to Doo Wop, I would suggest getting help if you are looking for a good place to begin. I can only hope I made a good choice. Who knows…maybe I made the right one!
HI...I actually went to this store, when I was a Teenager... I also found them once they relo to another store.. I would site there (old store) and listen and talk with Jerry.. His collection was outstanding, I still have many of the 45's, I bght from him, plus some albums, "Battle of the Groups" etc.. This collection here is outstanding... Must Purchase... If you really are into the DOO WOPS.. Happy Listening....!
