Doo Wop Dialog[ue]: 2

Tony,

I enjoyed your post, particularly coming from abroad where you didn't really have "first hand" exposure to what we in the Colonies call "Doo Wop." It's funny, growing up in the fifties in Southern California the term "Doo Wop" was unheard of. DJ's like Huggie Boy and Art Laboe just started calling music from the past "oldies" and this included every genre. You mentioned "Holy Writ", the beauty of this club is there doesn't seem to be any "self proclaimed" experts who push their thoughts on the rest of us as "Gospel". I'm loving this flow of conversation, it keeps us thinking and SHARING.
