The forgotten part of rock'n'roll was doo-wop, which was mostly associated with the large cities like New York, Chicago and Philadelphia. But what is doo-wop? The Oxford English Dictionary calls it "a style of pop music marked by the use of close harmony vocals using nonsense phrases, originating in the US in the 1950s." The abiding image of doo-wop is of four kids singing under a street lamp or in the doorway of an apartment block, probably black, and probably in Harlem. Although we now

regard those three vocal groups as doo-wop, the singers would have been confused because, at the time, there was no such term. They considered themselves rock'n'roll or rhythm and blues, and the descriptive phrase 'doo wop' wasn't created until 1969 for some radio broadcasts in New York. Today, many doowop fans collect the original 45s and some of them are worth thousands of dollars. This collection features 40 titles and the original singles are, in many cases, very valuable indeed.
