CD Reviews

ANOTHER GREAT PIECE OF THE PUZZLE.

R. C. Weil | maryland, usa | 11/14/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"So you liked the KING VOCAL GROUP set of 4 CD'S with all those 50's and early 60's classic tunes? Well, this is a great complement to that foursome. It zeroes in on the Doo Wop side of the King family of labels, bringing many heretofore lost gems into the limelight they truly deserve. A great collection, well worth the investment. And how about the R & B side of King, Federal, etc.?? Try to get your hands on GREAT GOOGA MOOGA, subtitled Rhythm & Bluesin' with King, Federal, Deluxe Vocal Groups (Sequel label CD 907) I ordered it from Amazon.uk, since Amazon of the USA doesn't carry it. Another gem from the archives, and another great piece to the King, Federal, Deluxe legacy. Happy listening!"

GREAT DOOWOP FROM KING RECORDS

COMPUTERJAZZMAN | Cliffside Park, New Jersey United States | 02/22/2007

(4 out of 5 stars)

"THE DOOWOP OUTPUT ON KING (FEDERAL AND DELUXE) RECORDS IS LARGELY OVERLOOKED TODAY. TWO OF MY FAVORITE VOCAL GROUPS ARE THE GUYTONES AND THE CHANTERS, WHO BOTH RECORDED FOR THAT LABEL, AND ARE REPRESENTED HERE (GUYTONES-'YOU WON;T LET ME GO" AND THE CHANTERS' ((SOMEWHERE) OVER THE RAINBOW) ARE CLASSICS AND YOU WILL LOVE THEM. THE OTHER SELECTIONS HERE AS GOOD AS WELL, BUT THOSE ARE THE BEST."
