ULTRA
RARE
DOO WOP
This week’s Friday Night Cat Fight returns to the bread and butter that made my XM programs so successful; Doo wop. I’m featuring an hour of “ultra” rare doo wop records. How rare, you ask? Well, these records are SO RARE that none of them were EVER played on my old radio programs. I intentionally stayed away from the ol’ Night Prowl Show favorites. So if you were a big fan of the old show, you’ll be hearing a lot of “new” stuff on this week’s Cat Fight.
You’ll hear The Flamingos, The Five Dollars, The Romancers and an unreleased gem from The Moonglows from their days at Chance Records.
Whether you call this music doo wop or vocal group harmony, you’re sure to dig this extra heapin’ helpin’ of smooth harmony sounds. You will also get to vote on the doo wop classic, “White Cliffs Of Dover.” I’m presenting 2 versions that never got airplay on the old show. So sit back, relax and pretend like it was 2006 and all is well with the world.
