Another Doo-Wop Medley!

I received so many wonderful comments after I recently posted a Doo-Wop medley, I have decided to do another one to close out the week!

Although the genre is most often associated with the 1950s, several of the songs on today’s medley were recorded in the early 1960s and were Doo-Wop’s final stand against the pending British Invasion.

      Thanks, Fred.
      Doo-Wop once a month? You got it!
      Yes, Shep was shot to death in his car on the Long Island Expressway in 1970.
      Rock On, Bro!

          As long as they keep popping up in your head, you’re in good shape. 🙂

    Oh wow what a wonderful way to end the week, with all the doo-wop songs! This was terrific , absolutely had me singing my head off, which consequently got lots of looks from the cats! They just don’t appreciate this music I guess. Ray, you outdid yourself with the selections that you chose. Loved every single moment can’t wait to hear one every once in a while including some of these greats. Rock on through the weekend Ray!

      Thanks, Sandy 🥰
      I love the fact that you belt these songs out … with feeling!
      I’ll be back on Sunday with something very mellow. 🙂
      Rock The Day!

    Smooth do wop on a rainy morning

    You belong to me

      Thanks, Mary Helen 🥰
      I’m always glad when the music makes you smile.
      If there’s a cloud above
      If it should rain we’ll let it

    Yesterday I felt like it was Saturday and today felt like Monday, all I can say is glad it is over! Great Doo Wop to help get thru the day! Life would be a dream if the weekend came … LOL

      Thanks, Penny 🥰
      Glad you enjoyed the music, and here’s a little reminder from my good friend, George Harrison, to help keep the days straight.
      Yesterday, today was tomorrow
      And tomorrow, today will be yesterday
      🙂

      Hope that helps! Have a wonderful weekend!

    The best of Doo Wop for sure. Daddy’s Home and Oh What A Night Are my favorites. Would love a Doo Wop day every month. These are perfect for slow dancing, cheek to cheek!! Kids today don’t know what they are missing.

      Thank you, Pat. 🥰
      Sounds like Fred started something with once a month Doo Wop!
      Kids today don’t know as much as they think they do about a lot of things.
