Before rock ?n? roll . . . before R&B . . . there was doo wop. Drift back to a gentler time with the tunes and harmonies of the doo wop groups of the late ?50s and early ?60s. From the timeless and haunting "Since I D... more »on?t Have You" to the upbeat "Barbara Ann," this collection of beloved music will unlock a treasure trove of memories.

Doo-Wop: Vocal Group Greats Lie, Vol. 1

"This DVD was great! Money well spent. I've seen enough of these PBS T.J. Labinsky shows on TV and not all the artists can sing like they used to but there are still a lot that can blow you away. I'm an old dawg from the old school and I got to tell you this dvd is good. The picture and sound quality are great and so are the performances. It's one of my favorites and I play it all the time."

Not the best Doo Wop concert by Lubinsky
Olde Timer | Sacramento, CA, USA | 07/17/2008
(3 out of 5 stars)
"This Doo Wop concert was performed at The Sands Casino in Atlantic City and is more a night club performance than a theater performance. The groups that performed live did a great job and would have been even better in the Benedum Center For the Performing Arts in Pittsburg. There are a number of "flashback" films included here that did not seem to add that much to the presentation.
Overall, not one of Lubinsky's better efforts, due to the concert location and over-production in the editing room.
A better choice is Rock, Rhythm and Doo Wop. Also produced by Lubinsky."
