Master Four - It's Not The End - Beautiful 60's Doo Wop / Soul Crossover

[Lorenzo1950]

The lead singer performs with the Sheps.

[Lorenzo1950]

@Lorenzo1950 Also the song doesn't have a bridge. It just builds and builds on the verse. One of my favorite songs.

[PJDooWop]

Very good observation. I have to agree.. It's like a slow buildup to an eventual explosion. You know it's going to happen.. You just don't know when (at least the first time you play it)

[doowopman49]

[PJDooWop]

You're welcome

BEAUTIFUL!!!

[theintruder42]

What a great song, never heard it before. Never heard of the group either. If you have anymore by this group i like to hear them. I can hear Little Anthony and the Imperial voices all over this song. Great post, thanks.

[PJDooWop]

They only had two 45s that I know of. Technically three, but one was a reissue of this

[vinylgal89]

Beautiful is the perfect word for this song!

Love this!

[RobGordon35]

This is lovely! I've got my mac hooked up to my amp and speakers and the sound is amazing, -said it once and I'll say it again, many thanks for making these great tunes available to us in such *great* quality man! :)

~Peace.

[PJDooWop]

This 45 was mastered by Audiomatrix.. Their 45s usually sound great

[pinkfloyd59]

I have this on TS-6012 with "Love from the Far East" on the flip side. pinkfloyd59

[PJDooWop]

This also has "Love From The Far East" on the flip. 6012 is a styrene copy with the cartoon characters on the label. Both are rare but that's the rarer of the two

[Tomp40f]

I have this on Dynamite Soul Harmony Volume 1 LP, DSH 7001, but interestingly, they have it as by the Jet Set, on Rojac, released 1969. This is a super LP with many great cuts, including You're All I Live For/Four Vibes, Girl of the Night/Uptites, and Back to School Again/Cashmeres.

[PJDooWop]

Thank you

[harptone55]

LOVE IT!!

[Tomp40f]

This was played in Phila. A great example of the Phila sound, such as the Moments, etc.

[PJDooWop]

I didn't realize this got airplay in Philly. I am unsure if this is a NY or NJ group, but the lead currently lives in Central NJ

[chess1458]

Killer Piece!!!

[PJDooWop]

Thanks man

[persevere4]

@PJDooWop - ADDED TO MY PRIVATE ARSENAL - Thanks will put to good use, you give an assit to gain some yardage (football talk) and maybe help me score a touchdown, the key operative word syllable is "touch" well what can I syllabically say?

[PJDooWop]

Makes sense. Hopefully it helps

[stjohn832]

FANTASTIC!

[PJDooWop]

I agree

[CrisVangel]

Great one! PJ strikes again!!

[PJDooWop]

[skyavalanche]

The sheer rarity and obscurity of this tune makes it special. The voice(s) and arrangement is stellar, but I find the lyrics awkward. Wish I could go back in the DooWop Time Machine and give the words better punch and flow.

[PJDooWop]

I noticed the awkwardness of the lyrics too
