Little Anthony and The Imperials -- The Hits Of ...
Classic Doo-Wop group Little Anthony and The Imperials are a way to cherry pie happy for me to handle, I search for the dark desperate Doo-Wop that longs for love. Needless to say this record isn't bad, for two reasons Travelling Stranger and Cha Cha Henry. Travelling Stranger is a typical swingin' Doo Wop tune, lots of vocals and a great beat, while Cha Cha Henry sounds more like a soulful Rock 'n' Roll number, like Little Eva's Locomotion, you get my drift! Bargain basement label Pickwick (see Isley Bros Soul Shout! for more label info) bought what they could to make this hits collection, I guess they couldn't afford Shimmy Shimmy, Ko-Ko Bop.
