First off, sorry I have been gone for a while. I have been on vacation so I have been unable to post any more of my series. However, I did have time to put together this video on Doo-Wop music.
Doo-wop (sometimes doo-wopp) is a style of vocal-based rhythm and blues music developed in African American communities in the 1940s, achieving mainstream popularity in the 1950s and early 1960s. Built upon vocal harmony, doo-wop was one of the most mainstream, pop-oriented R&B styles of the time. After finish this video I came to the conclusion that doo-wop didn't evolve much, but it's still nice to have all the top doo-wop songs wrapped up into one video.
Song list:
1953 The Orioles - Crying in the Chapel 0:05
1954 The Crew Cuts - Sh-Boom 0:30
1954 The Chords - Sh-Boom 0:55
1954 The Penguins - Earth Angel (Will You Be Mine) 1:20
1955 The Moonglows - Sincerely 1:45
1955 The Platters - The Great Pretender 2:10
1955 The Platters - Only You 2:35
1956 The Five Satins - In the Still of the Nite 3:00
1956 Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers - Why Do Fools Fall in Love? 3:25
1957 The Dominoes with Billy Ward - Star Dust 3:50
1957 Danny & The Juniors - At the Hop 4:15
1958 The Platters - Twilight Time 4:40
1958 The Platters - Smoke Gets in Your Eyes 5:05
1959 The Flamingos - I Only Have Eyes for You 5:30
1960 The Drifters - Save the Last Dance for Me 5:55
1961 The Marcels - Blue Moon 6:20
1962 Gene Chandler - Duke of Earl 6:45
1962 The Drifters - Up on the Roof 7:10
1963 The Drifters - On Broadway 7:35
1964 The Drifters - Under the Boardwalk 8:00

I was born in the early 80s, but my parents were both born in the 40s and grew up with this wonderful music. They got me into it when I was a kid and teenager and I discovered more doo wop groups as I got older. So many memories of these songs connect me to my parents.

I agree. This music, a lot of came from Black singers and musicians, did more to integreate this country than all of the laws put together. I was a real demonstration to us that people are people, and not black or white, or dark or light. Unfortunately, today many have forgotten that message or just plain never learned it. In my late years now, I am sometimes ashamed of just how much America has wasted and gone backwards. I pray ever day this will change but, as much as I have searched the Bible, I have not faound the word America.

I loved listening to doo wop Music, growing up in NY. Even though it was before my time. The 50's and 60's had some of the greatest music And it's sad that a lot of the artists that sang these songs Weren't getting paid what they should have, especially the royalties ! And what's even worse is that Radio stations don't even play doo wop on the radio anymore. Today's generation of kids, are missing out on an whole era of music !

When you were born in the 80s, had parents that made you listen to hard rock & metal from the 60s & 70s, but you still somehow end up knowing every song on this list. I think it's because there was a big nostalgia for the 50s/60s music & aesthetics in the 80s. I've probably heard all of these songs, plus a ton of Surf Rock, in 80s movies.

Wow. Doo wop. And it's amazing to know that looking at this tree of music, half the present tree top would be missing, if it weren't for doo wop. From reggae to hip, including stuff like house music and techno, would literally not exist if you were to take away this little building block.

I grew up listening to the 50's. by the late 60's I was out clubbing and partying. love this old stuff. You can hear the voices instead of only the music as in today's songs.

I love this music, the best!!! I might have been born on the 80's but I enjoy the 50's music, so peaceful

One of the reasons why I like Doo-Wop. They really are the good musics! Better than todays music.

@jamesbitetto6040 5 лет назад

I couldn't agree with you more because Doo wop is really about relationships between man and woman and for me, it also was very pure time with respect for one another. Try to get a man today to express his inner feelings of love or loss without thinking of sex first even though God did wire our brains to procreate in a marriage relationship.

When this music came out in 1953 thru 1964 I was only 7 years old. I just love my 50's music 🎶. Growing up in this era was so much fun for me. I remember cruiseing with my friends on Saturday nights. We would go looking for boys. The main drag was downtown San Jose. Good memories. 🙂😉😊😄😁😀🤗

Hey Nathaniel! I was there in the 1950s Nathaniel! I would say you got it right dude! Most of the songs deserve to be in the top 20! Certainly the Platters are well represented as well as the Five Satins and The Drifters and Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers also. Good choices dude!

@NathanielJordon 10 лет назад

Thanks! It's great to hear that from someone who lived through that period of time!

I was wondering if you were speaking and Nate Nelson of the Flamingos because his song delivery is one of a kind especially creating the mood as he sings so deep within his beautiful heart!
