Videls - Save A Dream ( ACTUALLY this is the Mystics )

[DavidNycDooWop]

Great Tune By The Videls Keep Rocking Then Great Tunes

Actually this is the Mystics! I can't change it because 99% of the doowop world believes it's the Videls because of a recording & print mistake. Read down a bit & read all the messages posted.

You know, I think I'll change the header around a little. Thanks 4 bringing it to my attention!

Save A Dream is by The Mystics not the Videls.

[dowopper51]

Sorry guy! This is the Videls, I've owned this LP for 35 years! It's the 8th song on the A-Side. I'll send you a picture of the label & LP cover. It's not the Mystics.

The Mystics recorded in 1965 "In My Faithful Heart" and "Save A Dream" (this last written by Pete Andreoli and Vinny Poncia of The Videls)two unreleased songs for many years but in 1980 Crystal Ball Records released a Videls albun that mistakenly incluided "Save A Dream".I repeat this song is by The Mystics Not The Videls.

I read where you copied & pasted ( Mystics recorded in 1965 "In My Faithful Heart" and "Save A Dream") In the same HISTORY OF THE MYSTICS by Bob Ferrante. Which stated (The Tradewinds vocal group would soon change their name to The Videls.) which is a mega mistake. In turn they loose credibility with me. At this point in time I really don't care, let Poncia, Ferrante and Crystal Ball fix the confusion. I am not about to argue with everyone that has this LP or the CD, I can use my time 4 posting.

Besides, this is not Crystal Ball, it's Magic Carpet. As for now, I'll leave the header alone & will continue to research it. You could be correct, you could be wrong. As for now, I'll go by what the LP says.

My information is from George Galfo original member of The Mystics...

YES THE MYSTICS DID RECORD

"SAVE A DREAM"

WHICH WAS WRITTEN BY PETE AND VINNY(OR BOTH) OF THE VIDELS.

ALL OUR BEST

GEORGE GALFO

(ORIGINAL MYSTIC MEMBER)

Honestly, I think U are correct! It does sound much more like the Mystics than the Videls. I love both groups, it does have a Mystic's sound. I have been in contact with some big doowop collectors up in the N.E. who also thought it is/was the videls. The problem is, it was never released on a 45, the LP is causing the problem. I will repost this as the Mystics. Now, the Mystics had many different leads, who sang lead on this? Only because many collectors will argue with me about Videls/Mystics.
