Acapella Doo Wop
History - Recordings - Radio Stations - Charts

The Primarily A Cappella catalog home page

Doo-wop: a distinctly American musical form that flourished in the 1950's, emerging from urban centers such as New York and Chicago. It's vital statistics? Groups comprised of four to five members, bass/baritone/tenor (or a first and second tenor) and lead, singing in three or four part harmony; frequent use of falsetto; predominance of "nonsense syllables"; dynamic bass parts; instrumentation subservient to vocals or nonexistent; simple but heavy backbeats and lyrical themes that espouse love and longing for "the one." It's pedigree? The vocal harmony groups of the 1940's, such as the Ink Spots and the Mills Bros., rhythm and blues, which incorporated elements of jazz and swing; country and gospel. Each of these individual cells would develop into the matrix called rock and roll, of which doo-wop is considered a part.

The "Rock 'n Roll Jubilee Ball," presented by legendary dee jay Alan Freed in 1955, featured acts the Clovers, Drifters, Harptones and Moonglows, a spectrum of talent that was representative as any of the musical trends of this dynamic period. A bevy of independent record labels sprung up to support and popularize the new music, including Chess, Vee Jay, King, Jubilee, Atlantic, Gee, Laurie and Dootone, and the personalities behind these often one room operations were practically as notorious as the artists themselves: George Goldner, Herb Abramson, Bess Berman, Syd Nathan.

As for the artists, they started young and often burned out early, and frequently realized meager rewards save the excitement of seeing their names on a theater marquee. With few exceptions, the acts were not adequately financed, and though technology was advancing at an unheard of pace (which provided new outlets and opportunity in the form of radio and television), the recording process was generally primitive, with groups rushed in and out of the studio in assembly line fashion. Indeed, that is why so many of the groups of this period sang "acapella": it was simply cheaper, as the producers didn't need to pay for a band! By the way, "acapella" as a moniker (as distinct from the Italian term "a cappella," which, strictly defined, means "in the church style") evolved after a conversation between Donn Fileti, Leo Rogers (of Bruce Records) and Wayne Stierle, according to Wayne in his liner notes for the Moonglows "Glowing in Acapella." However it's described or whatever it's called, doo-wop in general and acapella doo-wop in particular represents a golden age in American vocal harmony, with a loyal following that remains vital to this day.


The following groups' recordings are reviewed below

Alley Cats - Avenue X - Belmonts - Charm - Chessmen - Choice - Dachays - Delmonicos - DC Finest - Essentials - Fabulous Delcardos - Five Delights - Five Jades - Frankie & the Fashions - Jukes - Larkings - Johnny Maestro & Brooklyn Bridge - Mighty Echoes - Moonglows - Nutmegs - Perfect Blend - Persuasions - Regency - Reunion - Royal Counts - Sheps - Shells - Spaniels - Special Delivery - Stormy Weather - Things To Come - Variations - Velvet Angels - Various Artists

I'm listening to all the CDs I got for Christmas. Here they are:

Christina Aguilera's Stipped
Nick Carter's Now Or Never
Faith Hill's Cry
Rebecca Lynn Howard's Forgive
Toby Keith's Unleashed
Jennifer Lopez's This Is Me...Then
LeAnn Rimes's Twisted Angel

So far, I am most impressed with Rebecca Lynn Howard and LeAnn Rimes. Both CDs are great. Rebecca is the most talented female singer I have heard in years. Cyndi Thomson was the next huge country singer, but she quit. That paves the way for Rebecca Lynn Howard. I love both CDs. I haven't listened to Faith's yet, but I'll let you know what I think.

Out of all the CDs I gotStipped by Christina is my favorite. Cry is the only CD that I don't love - not yet anyway.

[razorbac]

Tanya Tucker the mellenium collection :D

[SHANIANUTS!]

COO

[ianluvshania]

I'm also listening to the CD's i got for christmas which were

Michelle Branch - The spirit room
Foo fighters - One by one
Faith Hill - Cry

I love all three of them from first listen, and look forward to getting to know the songs a bit better.

Bought a couple of older cd's in the sales yesterday, which have been wanting to get for a while which were

Faith Hill - There you'll be
Dixie Chicks - Wide open Spaces

Heard so much a bout the chicks, but never gotten round to gettin any of there albums. Well again from first listen, its is SUPERB, as is Faith's, and i am definitely, going to get both of there existing albums eventually.

Now we're talkin'. What a great band! If I had to pick a favourite album of theirs I guess it would be "Crisis, What Crisis?", although "Crime of the Century" would not be far behind.

I think Shania said she listened to them when she was growing up too. ;)
