Today’s special is doo-wop accompanied by sh-bop with a side of oodly-poppa-cow, garnished with do-da wadda do and finally some oo-wee-ooh for desert.

These are slightly lesser known hits from the doo-wop era than I posted way back in episode 6 but still well known to appreciators of the genre. There’s also a few twists on the doo-wop style as this set includes a Cuban tune, a song featuring ukulele as a main instrument and what must be the only Country doo-wop song (it’s written by Hank Williams so it must be Country). Finally the last track includes a high note of the type that I have to warn you I’m not responsible for any broken windows etc.
