I have to say it, this is what real Rock n Roll HARMONY was like. I feel sorry for the teens growing up in this era who missed all of this. It was real music and guys who actually could sing. I love this tight harmony and this group.
Pretty good version of a great record, but it isnt nearly as good as The Fascinators, listen to this by them on the original 45 on Capitol, n ul understand. " God digs Doowops ".
Still makes me cry....did i ever know a Rose Marie,,,nah,,,jus this song and those perfect voice's eats into my soul....thaks for that. I listen to it at least 5 times a day...god dam my tear ducks are inflamed.
I recently saw "Legends of Doo Wop" in concert, and Tony Passalaqua, the original lead of the Fascinators, did this song, and also "Chapel Bells" (have the Roomates done that one?) Great song!! :-)
Well, this is your opinion nyimtman. You see whole too seriously. Who is amateur, who is no amateur? I think, Tony is proud of the Roomates which play exceptionally good music for many years.
Nooooooo, nyimtman!! There is nothting amateur about the Roomates! They are wonderful singers and do a GREAT job on American Doo Wop. I am sure Tony would appreciate that they are keeping his music alive. He is getting up in years and won't be doing this forever, even though he still sounds great.
I saw Tony in the Richard Nader Show last Sunday night in Ft. Lauderdale. I guess you saw the show in Clearwater the night before? He did Chapel Bells. I saw him last October and he did Oh, Rosemarie and Chapel Bells in a show that was just Legends for the whole show. He still has a wonderful voice.
I also think it is great that the Roomates are keeping Doo Wop alive. I love their covers, epecially This is My Love, acapella, and Band of Gold, and Silhouettes, and, and......etc :-)
Did Tony get to hear this great version? I LOVE the Legends, and they stole my heart in Doo Wop at 50. I hope he'd be pleased to hear the Roomates. I'm an avid doo-wopper from Philly...the Roomates are boss, yes? Keepin' the sound alive and very well!
You're a real doofus nyimtman. These guys are really, really good. They ain't the Fascinators but who is? BTW I'm from NYC too...ENY brooklyn and I'm just fine with their covers of the Passions, Mystics,
Fascinators et all. My old lady and I are going to Europe in September and I hope and pray that they're performing while we're there cause we'll go to every show.
Fabulous harmonies, if I could convert them to MP3 I'd put all their music in my player.

I just love the harmony of this group. They have their own unique sound, and it's fantastic doo wop.

Stop being a jerk and enjoy the music.

As usual The Roomates version is at least on par with The Legends version & I believe far superior to The Fascinators original take
