Please do not leave rude comments about these gentlemen, they are wonderful, and will do anything for their fans, let's face the facts, they are keeping Doo Wop alive for all of you, a loyal fan always, Carol from Turtle Creek
This lead singer is seriously bad. How can these guys call themselves the Duprees? Oh how I miss Richie Rosato. He always did Joey Vann proud. This group of clowns is just embarrassing.
richie rosato is singing with the inferno band,,,look them up,,,,this is a sad version,,,no body sings like richie,,,,haven't seen the group since he left,,,,this is poowop,,,
None of these guys are in any way involved with any Duprees' recordings. They are nothing but a bunch of imposters who somehow got the rights to The Duprees trademark. Meanwhile, the surviving members of the Duprees have no right to perform as the Duprees.
@bgdisbrow By no means an expert but it appears the lead singer in the video, Tommy Petillo has been singing lead for them for more than 30 years. He performed with former original members Joe Santollo and Mike Amone so I believe that's how the lineage was passed.
Not an original member in this group, they were very good when they had Richie Rosato singing lead, not so good with this new lead singer. Wise up get Richie back.
These guys are scammers! In no way are they even close to singing this song how it should be sung! They should stick to delivering newspapers or pizzas! Just don't disrespect a famous group!
Okay, I'm with you in that I'd prefer the original as well, but come on... no need to bash. This old guy sounds GREAT... Think of it as a "cover"... a "tribute" if you have to.
Who the heck are these guys??? Not one original member in this bunch! They should not be called the Duprees. Joey Vann, the lead singer of the Duprees, died on Feb 28, 1984 at the age of 41. Joe Santollo, tenor, died in 1981 at the age of 38. This is a disgrace, trying to fool people!!!
deedle i wish some of the other guys who have song with the duprees would get together like richie rosato and mike kelly form a group and due the duprees classics
cheryl you say the end guy is only singing back up? Do you know anything about singing at all. The backup singers are singing good ole 3-4 prt harmony that make the song in the first place. learn something about harmony , please.
Richie made a surprise showing at the Bloomfield Park concert Friday night and sang two songs with the Inferno's, I wasn't there, but sure wish I was, Harriet41 was so happy, all her dedication has paid off ! Richie Rosato we love you !! The voice of the Duprees
hardsly - You are obviously a "friend" of Tony Testa and the group. That is OK. I have always said that the members are talented. You are missing the point. They are not the Duprees, they are breaking the law under the "Truth in Music Act". I folowed the group for many years but a "sham is a sham". This will all come to a close when the final verdict is reached in court. I would like to see some vindication for Tommy B. and John Salvato.
what are you guys thinking. You are not even close to being a singing yet beinf called the duprees. Get a life in another profeeeion. This is the worst!!!!!!!!!!
readyindestin mike Arnone died..these guys have been together for many yrs .Yes Tommy has been with them "only" 5 or so yrs...THEY are great and are always great Anthony Calvaggio was the last lead singer who sounded most like "the Original" Tommy is a great singer...let's get off the "original" group...issue...
OK...last comment on the "Tribute to the Duprees". Talented group of professionals. Without Mike Arnone they are now just a tribute group. Let's stop calling them the Duprees!
No these are not the "original" members, but they are all great performers...This video does not do them justice..They are in every way a "CLASS ACT", and anyone who gets the chance should go see one of their conerts.
love, love, love these guys!!!!
