My aunt, who's now 96, used to play In "The Still of the Night" all the time. I still think that it's the great doo-wop song ever recorded. R.I.P. Fred Parris. He's probably doing harmonies with the angels.
In 1956, after midnight, in the Bronx NY, I was riding around with a friend of mine when I heard on my radio the disc jockey play a new record. I Ioved it then, I loved it since, I will always love the feeling and mood it puts me in. RIP Mr. Parris, doowop FOREVER.
Rest In Peace Fred Parris, you brought love to many in this world with your song "In the Still of the Night." Coming from his Hometown this is a great tribute Sonny Martone.
Sonny, a fitting tribute to a true doo wop icon. I was blessed to have had the chance to meet him in September, at lunch in the Longhorn.... He was a true gentleman, even obliged in taking a picture, and conversed with us at length about the music of that era. An unforgettable day. RIP Mr. Parris.
