The Best of the Dovells 1961-1965

by The Dovells

Overview

This 21-track compilation charts the career of the Dovells, a Philadelphia-based vocal ensemble that burst onto the US pop charts in 1961 with the instantly catchy "Bristol Stomp." Among the many underrated doo-wop-tinged gems here are the headstrong "No, No, No" and the jubilant "You Can't Sit Down." With its excellent liner notes and fine selections, CAMEO PARKWAY gives this charming R&B-inspired group its due.
