  • One of the great groups of all time. Leroy Griffin ,such a great songwriter as well as lead singer.Wish i could have met him ,a heart of gold comes through the lyrics.

  • One of my favorite Doo wop tunes. Thanx for posting. You and I know first there were the Lyres then they reorganized into the Nutmegs, then they became the Rajahs, then became the Nutmegs again! :o)

  • @drjimiboy69 i strongly agree with your comments here. tom d brick,nj

  • GREAT!!!

  • Lytation--I once met a middle-aged guy who was both a jazz singer and an R&B singer and who grew up in the projects of New Haven, Connecticut in the early 1950s. He said that on any summer night, you could take a walk outside, and the Nutmegs would be one corner, the Scarlets on another, and the Chestnuts on a third.

  • Vibrating tenor lead on top of the superb group harmonies. Q and A at its best. Leroy Griffin is unsung but should be acknowledged as one of the unique and greatest voices of the day. That is quite a statement when one considers the type of talent around at that time. Even the instrumental support has a wailing sax and melodic, choppy r and b guitar to provide even more foundation. We can only dream how they would have evolved by the mid 60s neo-do wop soul era.

  • good old new have doo woop

  • More credit must be given to Leroy Griffin the songwriter. His tunes are complex and haunting.

  • There's a CD called "The Rajahs of Acapella - THE NUTMEGS" which has a fantastic version of "Beautiful Dreamer, including a very endearing miss on a note by the bass voice.... He tries to sing the line and it just gets lost in his throat.... You hear his near silence.... A producer would hate it, but it's a wonderful moment. Would love to hear that again........

  • I believe The Nutmegs were formed out of the Rahahs,Thats why the Herald versions were finished versions..I also believe they were once the Lyres as well,,DZ from the Bean
