Author, record collector, R&B; enthusiast and all around groovy guy, Steve Propes returns to the Night Prowl Show to talk about some of the great West Coast R&B; Vocal Groups on West Coast Doo Wop Wednesday! Make sure you are tuned in at 5pm PT for the inside story on Richard Berry, Jesse Belvin, The Barons, The Penguins and many more. 
Larry Darnell was the biggest R&B; artist of 1950 and the top selling artist of all time for Regal Records, but you’d never know it today. By the end of the 1950s, his flame of popularity had virtually blown out, but back at the beginning of the decade it was burning strong and bright. This week, I’m going to set the record straight and bring Larry Darnell back to glory days by spotlighting some of his greatest records from 1949’s immortal “I’ll Get Along Somehow” to 1957’s “Ramblin’ Man”. Don’t miss a single tear drop with Larry Darnell, a true R&B; legend on HARLEM with Matt The Cat.
