I'd be totally remiss to leave this guy out: Kenny Vance. He has kept doo-wop singing alive by doing it in a superior way...but not in some fusty, musty, museum-piece manner--Mr. Vance makes music. Fascinating bio: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenny_Vance << Been everything music for 50 years, and still has the enthusiasm. << Look at the huge names he's raised up or mentored. I've followed for 25 years and by all accounts, he's that rarity in the music biz--a true gent. Mr. Ruhlman has written nicely on him: http://www.allmusic.com/artist/kenny-van.../biography His Site: http://www.planotones.com/
Some tunes:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ke1dV_IpSKA << His own and his 1 hit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMLpDNiVYME << W/Johnny Maestro of the Brooklyn Bridge. Nice!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kj70nDhuXvU << Don't you love chance meetings on sidewalks?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MjoBrRSIfw << CAUTION: 1 hot vid--you might be tempted to do something real fun with someone you are close to.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jl2nznVY8w8
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0FpbJnUUjc << Bad-a$$ ride pictured
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otfHKFsksps << Pedal-steel sound from a 6-string.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZYnCF9Xdcs << This ain't cheatin', not when Ronnie Spector shows up << Not the best recording but that it even exists & got posted...My oh my
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrLi6B9nE58 << Still has that operatic voice
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isqY_GFjQ5g << Fun patter
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3ute2Yg-aQ

SEMI-BONUS: 1/2 hour of his best: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htnR90gm8E8 << Just lay back in the groove--it'll take you to a better place.
Still not sated? Somebody's posted a KV and the Planotones stream running 100+ vids at YT and another one of 200.
