VERNON GREEN AND THE MEDALLIONS "THE LETTER" 1954

This song is the bomb. I love oldies.

buena

..this tune is the bomb! When I first bought my 55 Packard in 1981, my buddies and I named the car "the pompitus of love" Unfortunately, since none of us actually knew what the hell a "pompitus" really was......the name didn't stick too long!

this guy is the gangster of love

The "pulpitudes of love" and "sweet words of dismatality". They don't write 'em the way they used to. (Steve Miller heard it as "pompitus of love".)

I first got this on the Org Oldies But Goodies Vol 1 Album, back in 1962, I really fell in love this song soon as I heard it, And , Then on the same album, Heaven and Paradise, Don Julian, Larks. When I hear one of these songs I think of the other one, Including the Velvitones on Vol2, Glory Of Love. Thanks for this Classic Oldie!

hey me too , i heard it in 1978 on my fathers oldies but goodies album......l.....loved it 1st time also  30 yrs later still playing doowop and r and b records

You have Excellent taste, And so does your Dad! Keep listening! Take Care!

Wonderful wonderful post. Gosh I loved this song the first time I heard it. I'm only 22 but i know sooo much doo wop I think I have my Grandma beat!

I heard a song: "you're irrisistible" by an all female group calling themselves The Medallions.
Anyone as an idea who they are and where do they hail from. I believe the song came out in 1962.
