PJ MY ONE FAVORITE IS DION

[Chumbo4012]

Thanks PJ

[buddyl49]

check out trying by the paramonts from the bronx

[PJDooWop]

I love that record. I guess "Trying" by The Hilltoppers was popular in The Bronx because another group from The Bronx recorded that - The Dials

[buddyl49]

did they do wizard of love?

[PJDooWop]

Although I previously thought so, from what people have been saying these are two different groups.

[roccopep]

@PJDooWop The Lydells that did the Wizard of Love are from West Philly

[eddie7792]

PJ,These Lydells are not from Philly,they are from Chicago,what happened is a local disc Jockey,here in Philly,Jerry Blavat,played it so much,everyone thought it was the Philly,and you know how thing mushroom

[roccopep]

@eddie7792 If these guys are not from Philly ,why was it recorded on Lost Nite a Philly label?

[DavidNycDooWop]

'There goes the guy who stole all my dreams...."

I danced to this hundreds of times at all the Jerry Blavat dances!

Thanks, PJ!..............Jan

Great song! Love the label too with small lettering for Lost Night and red wax at that! Wow! Such a great copy of this record to own! Thanks for letting me see it and hear it PJ!

[PJDooWop]

Block print Lost Nites with no lamp post are pretty rare. I think these were only pressed up until 63

[patteater]

@PJDooWop

Lost Nite Records were reissues of the originals, and while they may be rarer, I would think would not be worth more than than the original issues.

[PJDooWop]

Most Lost Nites are reissues, but not all. A great example is "Hey Girl" by The Perfections. "Now" by the Vel-Tones is another that apparently came out on Lost Nite first, although the copy that's valued the highest is on the very rare Zara label. I don't really collect reissues so Lost Nites are few and far between in my collection.

I'm learning many new things, blue wax, red wax. Neat. Love the Lydells.

[PJDooWop]

I have seen red, blue, green, orange, clear, tan, brown, purple, white and just about any color you can imagine. My favorite is splash wax which is a few colors randomly mixed together.

[chezfun]

Ooooo, this is sweeeet!!

[PJDooWop]

This is classic doo wop all the way

[ptmc3]

This sounds like something the StingRays should sing................Skip

[PJDooWop]

Mention it to them.. It would go over big if they ever did a Philly gig

[purepl416]

[PJDooWop]

Yes it is.. Thank you
