  • A medley of songs from the late 1950s and early 60s that are either lesser known or rare recordings. These songs were either regional successes in their day, were covers of popular songs, or did not reach success until later decades (EX: Freddy Fender's "Wasted Days & Wasted Nights" did not become popular until the mid 1970s when it was rerecorded to a country song.
    I hope you enjoy this compilation of beautiful songs that I hope will get the attention they deserve.

    Looking at these unfamiliar labels sparked a memory of why they looked so familiar to me. I was a kid in the 50's with older sisters. I remembered why we would end up with records from these labels. My dad use to get them from the owner of a little snack shop that was across the street from where my Dad worked in Chicago. He would give them to my Dad after they were no longer needed in the Juke Box. It was my Dad's dream to own that little snack shop which he eventually did across the street from Schurz High School in Chicago. Thanks for bringing back a fond memory of my childhood.

    For me this is the first-time hearing "oh betty" by the pharaohs. are you kidding me? this song is so good that its hard to believe that its a lesser known recording. I'm 66 and I'm not supposed to know much less like this type of music but it does something to me i cant explain. i have pretty vast knowledge of doo-wop just like much of you guys here and how come i never heard this song. i absolutely love it. i have a couple of co-workers who like doo-wop and one of them said to me give me your top 10 of all time..i told him all i can do is give you my #1 and #2 after that its to hard to rank. So for me my all-time #1 favorite is "in the still of the night" by the five satins and #2 all time for me is Donna the prima Donna by Dion. After that i said to him i can give you my top 100 but ranking them is impossible. well for me at least. it's like / is runaround sue number 3 or is it the wanderer. or neither.

    you cheated by "the shields" just discovered that one about a year ago..give it a try if you haven't heard it.
    donna by Richie Valens
    the angels listened in
    you're so fine by "the falcons."
    the loco-motion by little eva
    maybe by the chantells...what a voice she had
    so, i didn't rattle all of those off to him. how could you rank something like that. You could but it would watered down for lack of a better word of the moment and
    but if any of you want to give me your #1 and #2 of all time. I would love to see the two you chose.
    keep the oldies alive. A time long past where keeping your doors open at night was the norm.
    or waiting for it to get dark so we could start trick or treating instead of now days where they go to malls and trick or treat and their done by 8pm. Haha we were just getting started.

If you have EVER heard if the disc jockey Porky Chedwick, from Pittsburgh,PA, or more specifically, Homestead, PA, where i grew up, this is the sound that he was so well known for! He gave many groups their start by playing their music when no one else would!!!!! Jive Five gave him credit at an oldies Concert that my late husband and I attended in Pittsburgh, PA many years ago!

Anyway, LBJ and Truman should be rated far, far lower by the (court) "historians" if only for their foreign meddling, mass murdering, interventionist mentality that had nothing to do with U.S. national security. Kennedy was withdrawing the first 1,000 of the 16,000 military advisors (no fighting units!) but his withdrawal order was reversed by the ugly, corrupt, war-hawk LBJ on Tue.

    Can't thank you enough. These slow dancing doo woo oldies really go to the HEART of teenage love and romance. They really capture how kids felt so fully at that place and time.
    While everyone is familiar with the big hits of the time, it was these lesser-known songs, which were played at the same time as the big hits, and were popular, to one extent or another, and then faded out, which really helped to define an era (maybe some of them possibly more so than the big hits, you could argue), it's just that they've faded into obscurity.
    If you've ever heard a song that you hadn't heard in a REAL LONG time, it can trigger memories shooting back to you in a way the more familiar (and more often played) oldies don't.
    So I really appreciate your selections. I'm also interested in rare American Bandstand shows from the 1950's. They're available in clips here and there, but not the entire program. There is only one entire show from December 1957. Someone has been posting entire Bandstand programs from the 1960's and 1970's, but I am really interested in entire programs from the 1950's, if they're available. (Boy, talk about a source for some rare and obscure music...!). I realize you might not have any information about these old Bandstand shows. I'm just putting it out there

    The 5 cent records sold at most malt shops and some record stores. Some of these were covers of hit records. I rarely bought any but I found several years later in yard sales and such. Some of these people did have hits later on under different names . But the 5 cent record is part of Rock and Roll history. It was for kids that couldn't afford the hit records.

    I was born in 59 in the 🇬🇧 But this music stays in my mind. For some nostalgic reason it plays through my head when Im ever in a place where the area has a 50s throwback to it. One particular memory is from the late 70's. I was a soldier patrolling my base on the outer perimeters in Germany, a cold winter night, the rain drizzling in the lamp lights, yet this kind of music was running through my head it was so clear as if back in that era. It is still with me today. The best music ever so easy and relaxing absolutely beautiful harmonies and melodies. Long live doo wop.♥️♥️

I did a great version of "A casual look" by the "SixTeens" I would really step it up on the high womens notes and sort squeal ....remains vivid to this day. makes me smile. Luck to you Wolfie.

    Fantastic!compilation . Thanks for sharing, my friend . Whatever happened to music like this,at the time when words actually meant something? I am 58 years old now! But! When I was about 12 years old, my mum taught me to jive bop and stroll, and of course, I was hooked! I actually thought that the music of this genre would bring the whole world together as one big family. Whatever happened! It seems like everyone has lost their way and lost focus on what really matters in our short lifespan, I am British, I am not white or black or any other colour that you can think of!!! I am a human being just like you ! So! Let us all refocus on what is to be extremely important! Let us all listen and learn from our beautiful music of the past! 1930s 1940s 1950s 1960s let's teach our children how to speak and how to feel and that it is alright to show emotions. Let's all get back on the right track! Keep on rocking!

    a lot of the vocalists were pretty good. and the musicians were more than competent. the main problem was probably the songs themselves. it's hard to overcome pedestrian songwriting. my favorite was the performance by the Rialtos, "It Hurts", starting at about 44:10, with a great 2 -3 second guitar riff.
