  • Doo Wop, Tin Pan Alley, Aldon Music and Phil Spector Doo Wop, Tin Pan
    Jones-McIntosh_Rock_n_Roll02E_Ch10_Printer.qxd 7/8/16 1:47 PM Page 113 chapter 10 DooDoo Wop, Wop, Tin Tin Pan Pan Alley, Alley, AldonAldon Music Music and and PhilPhil Spector Spector Doo-Wop Doo-wop is an unaccompanied style of close-harmony singing by groups of usually four or five members that developed in the late 1940s and thrived in the early 1950s. If instrumen- tal accompaniment was added, it was very much in the background so as not to detract from the voices. The term “doo-wop” itself derives from the ad-lib syllables used while singing the harmony parts. The origins of doo-wop are traceable to nineteenth-century barbershop singing and to the music of such flagship groups as the Ink Spots in the 1930s and the Orioles in the late 1940s. The Orioles were one of the first prominent doo-wop groups, demonstrating their sound in 1948 with the #1 hit “It’s Too Soon to Know.” From 1948 to 1954, they recorded over 120 sides, hitting the charts with memorable songs such as “Crying in the Chapel” (1953). In the mid-1950s The Castelles and The Penguins innovated new doo-wop styles, most famously up-tempo doo-wop. The Penguins’ “Earth Angel” (recorded in 1954) is an excel- lent example of the matured popular doo-wop sound. The song “Get a Job” by The Silhouettes (that hit #1 in 1958) is arguably the most successful doo-wop song of all time. This song inspired the early Motown release of The Miracles’ “Got a Job” in the same year.

Their place in history is as complex as their role in it, by virtue of their extraordinary longevity and the fact that their line up changed so frequently that they must hold the record for the highest number of musicians to pass through the ranks of any one band in pop history! They could also be regarded as the first "boy band", deliberately created by a record company chief with a specific audience in mind. Their story began in early 1953, when Clyde McPhatter, a soaring high-tenor lead singer, left The Dominoes, a vocal quintet formed by Billy Ward three years earlier. The Dominoes were playing a scheduled gig at New York’s Birdland Club, one of their first performances without McPhatter, when an audience member asked after the singer backstage. That fan was Ahmet Ertegun, a one-time record collector who had started Atlantic Records in the late '40s. As soon as he learned McPhatter had left the Dominoes, he contacted the singer and signed him to Atlantic. It was Ertegun who gave McPhatter the impetus, as part of his contract, to start a group of his own. That group came to be called The Drifters. Although the people at Atlantic Records were not impressed with the name, Clyde McPhatter insisted.

    THE DRIFTERS DVD & CD PRESS RELEASE Incredible though it may seem, The Drifters have been in existence for over fifty three years and still continue to weave their magic spell on eager audiences throughout the world. The current line-up of Peter Lamarr, Patrick Alan, Rohan Delano Turney and Victor Bynoe maintains the tradition of great performances of their classic songs. - Roger Greenaway, Songwriter and Producer (Los Angeles, 2006) Drifters These outstanding singers who continue the legacy of the greatest vocal group of all time are proud to announce the release of the very first Drifters DVD: The Drifters “Live” (Warner Vision on July 3rd 2006).
