@blanton1624 Yes, we do have recordings. You can get them at Clifton Music, Clifton, NJ -- shown in this "Gee" vid, and also through us. See more at our myspace /choicebadboys page. Thank you.
This is my group, CHOICE, Jersey City's Bad Boys of Acappella. My name is EZ. We filmed this for Japanese TV in the early 90s thanks to the late Ronnie I. of Clifton Records. We are still together, and doing lots of things! See us on myspace. Our "handle" is: choicebadboys

Riff, This is my group, CHOICE, Jersey City's Bad Boys of Acappella. We filmed this in the early 90s. We are still together, and doing our thing. Check out us on myspace. Our handle is: choicebadboys
Awesome! See you on MySpace and hope to see you live. Saw Quiet Storm this summer at the DooWop festival in Philly. Thanks for checking in and I'm looking forward to more great sounds.
Amasing, totaly and utterly beautiful and inspiring. Its a shame that most music is so medicore and crappy in the mainstream these days, I recon its time to take a leaft from the old-school books and make an attempt to bring back that harmonious, un-beatable flavour of the Doo-Wop scene
Thank you to all who have been commenting so favorably on CHOICE. We are doing a lot of performing and recording with other artists these days. Check out our schedule on our myspace page: choicebadboys to see what's poppin in our world and our website under construction is lookin hot too: choicejerseycity and yes that is dotcom
Would luv2C y'all at our shows! Tell everyone you know.
Awesome! The sweet sound of true harmony is so rare these days. You guys sound great! Would love to see you live. Trust, a ticket to your concert is much more valuable than a ticket to hear some of the mess they are recording on major labels today. Keep up the great work. *Heading over to myspace to check you out*
If you want to see us live, feel free to check out our myspace page under /choicebadboys. We got a few interesting things coming up in the very near future. Including a gig for the Sons of Italy in Teaneck, NJ June 5. Tell all your friends! We're also working on our website, choicejerseycity Yes it's a dotcom work in progress. Bear with us!
Great Job... keep the memories alive. It's great to see that doo wop survives through guys like you who do not need all the gimmicks to make great sounds. Keep it up!
We, CHOICE, Jersey City's Bad Boys of Acappella appreciate all the kind words y'all are saying about us. Check us out on myspace to see where we perform and the kinds of things we got going on... see us at myspace with the handle /choicebadboys.
I remember watching you'll rehearse when I was a youngster. Some of the faces have changed but the sound is still good. We had a lot of fun back then!Poopie (Ding's bro-in-law).
Hey I resent that, I am american kid and i love doo wop. I'm just kidding about the resenting part, it's sad that most people my age (19) don't like doo wop.
Thanks to all who have been saying nice things about our work. As we have stated, this was for a documentary that aired in Japan on the Fuji Television Network. We had a great time doing it, with our friend and mentor, Ronnie I. of Clifton Music and UGHA fame behind us. The Japanese TV crew was extremely professional and great to work with!
We have been busy in other projects, and still perform our acappella. We have a page on myspace under choicebadboys.
This group -- CHOICE -- is performing in Jersey City on Saturday, May 31...you can check out their page on myspace and see the ad...real nominal fee...with the handle of /choicebadboys

Choice is from Jersey City. The label they have recorded for is Clifton Records, based in Clifton, NJ, where the famous Ronnie Italiano "Ronnie I." has run his business for almost 40 years.
Hi this is Christine Vitale from The Group Harmony Alley. I work with Choice. This was filmed for a Japanese television documentary on R&B vocal group harmony. So, no, it wasn't that they were just singing and someone taped it. A whole Japanese speaking video crew was there for the occasion.
By the way, all, this is EZ from Choice, again. We do have a myspace page you can check it out. Our handle is choicebadboys. Once again, peace. Hope to see you at a future Choice event!
Thank you...Choice thanks you. It's really nice to see all the nice remarks and emails we've been getting based on this one piece of work, that we only found out by chance, was posted to this site. Nice!
Hello JCBB, waiting for another video. It's been a year now. How do you guys advertise your shows, you are very talented. The kind of talent that comes from within yourselves, and i'm sure that you are the ones who brought it to surface through a lot of practice and dedication to your group. Have you ever thought about branching out and trying something different. You should give it some thought.May God bless you to reach your highest goals.
My absolute favorite acappella group -- just as tight and authentically representing a true streetcorner R&B sound today as they were at the time of this documentary made for Japanese TV. They have some releases on Clifton Records. They're on some compilations, a live CD, one Christmas CD and one (1) 21-track CD, and at least one 45rpm, which is now, like a collector's item. Additionally, they are featured on many videos, and some newly issued UGHA DVD's which you can get at Clifton Music.
Hey EZ I've been to Lead east every Labor Day for many years and somehow missed out on Choice. I heard many, many groups.you fellas hit that harmony with the best. I'am calling Ronnie I to get your CD's. God bless Danny G Gary Indiana home of The Spaniels!!
Hi, I am a follower of Choice. They're gonna be performing at the historic Loews Theatre, 54 Journal Square, in Jersey City, NJ -- across from the Path Station...this Saturday, December 1st. Showtime 7:45pm. If you're interested, the Loew's Box office number is 201-963-0408.
Great sound guys!! Thanks for posting this. Check us out on myspace. We also do soulful a'capella, Doo Wop style music and we're from Brooklyn, NY. myspace. com/NuMillenniumOnline
Would love 2 share the bill with u one day. We have 2 get down 2 Ronnie I's open mics one day too. :)
Wow. Heaven. Now, that's a compliment! Thanks for liking my acappella group, Choice, from Jersey City, NJ. Would be nice to get another Japanese TV documentary...hey, if you like my group, you can often hear us on The Group Harmony Alley, on 89.1/FM-WFDU. It streams live on the web also. I'm sure if you search the call letters, WFDU the site will be one of your results!
Regards, "E-Z" Choice (I'm the one in the white pants)
It's Jersey City's Bad Boys of Acappella...CHOICE!! Definitely one of the most versatile and talented acappella groups. They can switch up their parts, and they understand acappella arrangements better than many. Take it from me, I've worked with and observed many groups!! I absolutely love 'em.
Thanks for your comment. This is E-Z from Choice. I will be sure to pass your comment on to our bassman. Even though we've been together for many, many years now, I'm sure -- still -- he'll be inspired by it.
Yes, we are active now. This is EZ from Choice. We are active indeed. Your favorite since Charm, huh??? Hmmm...well, we were around when Charm was around...but Charm got scared and ran away...LOL...nah, Charm were, and still are good friends of ours...though they aren't together.
JCBB(CHOICE) Looove it. Excellent harmony and everyone right on key. Bad Boys you are. I love to sing and love good singing. I travel a lot, and would love to have a cd to play while riding those lonesome highways. Will you be posting other videos anytime soon? Would love to see more of you Bad Boys.
Hey this is EZ from Choice. The group that you are wishing to be immortal...thanks for that wish...we are definitely mortal, but for now we're still kicking it all the way live. We'll be doing a performance for the Clifton, NJ police -- National Nite Out on August 7@7pm Main Memorial Park...it's free...a whole host of groups are gonna be there, and classic cars...the whole nine...should be fun.
Hi, I am in this group called Choice. We have been recorded numerous times through the United In Group Harmony Association, and appear on several DVDs...I don't know of anything else of ours posted on this site though...
Hey Richie, This is EZ from Choice, the group, doing "Gee" in front of Clifton Music in Clifton, NJ. We filmed this for Japanese television. What group do you sing with?

Hello JCBB, waiting for another video. It's been a year now. How do you guys advertise your shows, you are very talented. The kind of talent that comes from within yourselves, and i'm sure that you are the ones who brought it to surface through a lot of practice and dedication to your group. Have you ever thought about branching out and trying something different. You should give it some thought.May God bless you to reach your highest goals.

My absolute favorite acappella group -- just as tight and authentically representing a true streetcorner R&B sound today as they were at the time of this documentary made for Japanese TV. They have some releases on Clifton Records. They're on some compilations, a live CD, one Christmas CD and one (1) 21-track CD, and at least one 45rpm, which is now, like a collector's item. Additionally, they are featured on many videos, and some newly issued UGHA DVD's which you can get at Clifton Music.

These guys are great. They sound like another
accapella group from Jersey City called The
Royal Counts (They did 'Chain of Broken Hearts') but the Royal Counts were doing it
in the mid to late 60's which was the golden age of accapella doo wop in NYC

Wow. Heaven. Now, that's a compliment! Thanks for liking my acappella group, Choice, from Jersey City, NJ. Would be nice to get another Japanese TV documentary...hey, if you like my group, you can often hear us on The Group Harmony Alley, on 89.1/FM-WFDU. It streams live on the web also. I'm sure if you search the call letters, WFDU the site will be one of your results!

It's Jersey City's Bad Boys of Acappella...CHOICE!! Definitely one of the most versatile and talented acappella groups. They can switch up their parts, and they understand acappella arrangements better than many. Take it from me, I've worked with and observed many groups!! I absolutely love 'em.
Christine Vitale, The Group Harmony Alley
WFDU-FM/89.1
Sundays, 6pm to 9pm EASTERN
Streaming live also.

Thanks for your comment. This is E-Z from Choice. I will be sure to pass your comment on to our bassman. Even though we've been together for many, many years now, I'm sure -- still -- he'll be inspired by it.

JCBB(CHOICE) Looove it. Excellent harmony and everyone right on key. Bad Boys you are. I love to sing and love good singing. I travel a lot, and would love to have a cd to play while riding those lonesome highways. Will you be posting other videos anytime soon? Would love to see more of you Bad Boys.
