4 out of 5 stars Doo Wop Music   August 23, 2008
My husband and I love this collection. We keep it in the car and don't even listen to the radio anymore. It takes us back to the time when we were young and care free.


5 out of 5 stars That Unique Music--   July 20, 2008
Being born in '55, I am younger than so many fans. However, I grew up with lots of older relatives and fell in love with doo-wop at a very young age. In fact, a Fleetwoods album was one of my first as a child.

This is a great little collection for a starter. It certainly isn't the only collection you'll ever need. For those wanting a fairly comprehensive sample this will certainly do, though. In a couple of places the remaster gets a little boom-y in the bass, but that's no big deal. It's an excellent buy and I'm glad to have it.



4 out of 5 stars Great Doo-Wop   July 7, 2008
Great Collection all on two CD's. Most compltete of the collections I previewed. Definately worth the $$.


5 out of 5 stars Makes me feel good...   May 8, 2008
I grew up when a night out could lead to a slow dance or two, this is the music that would do it. This album is a very complete mix of the big hits. Start here and maybe you will feel that feeling again. I gave this to my daughter, she's picking tunes for her wedding and I'm hoping to hear some Jerry Butler and The Impressions- "For your Precious Love". That alone is worth the price of this CD.


2 out of 5 stars disappointing   April 13, 2008
I was hoping the songs were the original recordings by the original artists. Little Darlin is not the hit recording by the Diamonds. I don't know which group is singing but it's the wrong one. Disappointing.
