RHINO ROCK BOX disc 8 the millennium party

Rhino Rock Box disc 8 the Millennium collection:  New Doo Wop Party..  This "New" follows the same as the other two previous new   in that there didn't appear to be an original.. That I could find at any rate..
Definitely a sound within the early realms of Rock & Roll combining the barber shop quartet with rock & roll.. Think the groups standing around the corner trashcans in the big cities singing their songs.. Like:

Book of Love by The Monotones ..  Classic Doo Wop sound..

Duke of Earl by Gene Chandler...

In The Still Of The Night by The Five Satins.. 

I Only Have Eyes For You by The Flamingos.. Possibly my favorite doo wop era song..

Save The Last Dance For Me by the Drifters.. The final song on this entry and the final entry of the Millennium set.. Six discs and an entry for each disc.. The disc I made of this set has 29 songs on it.. These entries were to show off the songs on each disc.. Now we move on to.. Another Nuggets set.. That's right it's called Children of Nuggets and it is more from the lost generation of rock, but is quite good..
