The Doo-Wop Decades, 1945-1965: A Resource Guide To Vocal Groups and Their Recordings

This resource guide highlights prominent Doo-Wop artists and their most well-known recordings. It focuses primarily on the 1945-to-1965 period of American music. The initial section of this volume identifies key Doo-Wop performers in alphabetical order and features brief listings of print references about their careers. The second section presents a selection of representative Doo-Wop single recordings arranged alphabetically by song title. This singles discography is followed by a listing of post-1966 recordings that demonstrate the influence of earlier Doo-Wop stylings. The following two sections contain lists of contemporary compact discs (CDs) which offer 21st century listeners the opportunity to enjoy individual Doo-Wop artists in album-length performances or collections of signature Doo-Wop hits by multiple performers in large compilations. Next, the "Appendices" features reprints of book and record reviews on Doo-Wop-related topics that have previously appeared in scholarly journals like POPULAR MUSIC AND SOCIETY and ROCK MUSIC STUDIES. Finally, a detailed "General Bibliograpahy" provides pint resources, both articles and books, that explore specific Doo-Wop groups as well as more general music subjects such as blues, gospel, R&B, and rock 'n' roll.
