LAR Enterprises Presents: Oh What A Night of Doo Wop & Rock N’ Roll is a celebration of classic and legendary music, will feature some of the top performers, including:
Kenny Vance and the Planotones
Among today’s great vocal Pop musicians, Kenny Vance and The Planotones have voices of original and inviting dimension. The group, Kenny Vance, Johnny Gale, Ladd Vance, Jimmy Bense, keyboardist Chip Degaard, and Tony Gallino on drums, redefine oldies with vocal authority and freshness.
The Capris
The Capris are an American Doo Wop group who, in 1961, had number one hit “There’s a Moon Out Tonight.” They experienced a popularity and performing resurgence in the 1980s when in 1982, they recorded the monster hit song, “Morse Code of Love”. Today, they are still performing throughout the country with original member Frank Reina.
Cleveland Still & The Dubs
Cleveland Still & The Dubs were formed in 1956 from the merging of two short-lived vocal groups in Harlem, New York, The Five Wings and The Scale-Tones. The Five Wings (originally “The 5 Stars”) were an up-and-coming group with members Jackie Rue (lead, later of Jackie and the Starlites). They are best known for their hit songs “Could This be Magic”, “Please, Don’t Asked Me To Be Lonely” and “Chapel of Dreams”.
Jimmy Gallagher & The Passions
The quintet recorded a few demos in 1958, at which time Tony, Albee and Vinny began looking for replacements who were more career minded. Another group in Bensonhurst had what they needed; when the three Sinceres heard Runaround’s lead singer Jimmy Gallagher, they knew he was the one for them (Jimmy’s previous group, the Palladiyms, included Joe DiBenedetto, who later formed The Four-evers). The Sinceres weren’t sure how to approach Jimmy, so they followed him home one night and knocked on his door. After convincing his mother that they only wanted to sing with her son, not mug him, the foursome went to a nearby park and ended up harmonizing for hours. They were now a quartet, with Jimmy on lead, Tony on first tenor, Albee on second tenor, and Vinnie on baritone. They have recorded “Just to Be With You”, “Gloria”, “I Only Want You” and many more.
Joey Dee
Joey Dee is an American Pop music star from the 1960s. Best known for his 1961 hit recording “Peppermint Twist,” with the Starlighters, the group was founded by Joey Dee, born Joseph DiNicola in Passaic, New Jersey in 1940. “Peppermint Twist,” became a cultural phenomenon in 1961, skyrocketing to the top of the charts and sparking a dance craze across the nation. The song’s infectious rhythm and Joey Dee’s charismatic stage presence made the group a household name and established their reputation as one of the premier acts in the early ’60s music scene. Other popular hits include “Lorraine,” and “The Girl I Walk To School”.
