The Original Recordings Platters 2007 New CD Top-quality Free UK shipping

The Los-Angeles based doo wop group had little identity of their own until their mentor, producer and song writer Buck Ram transformed them from an average run-of-the-mill R&B doo wop voal group into one of Pop and R&B’s biggest successes. The Platters eventually earned themselves the distinction of being the first black act of the era to top the pop charts. They were considered one of the most romantic of all doo wop groups turning out hit after hit in a seemingly effortless manner: Only You, The Great Pretender and My Prayer, all featured on this compilation, are to name but a few of these hits that established the Platters as the classiest doo wop group of all * Distinguished by peerless harmony singing, outstanding ballads like Only You, The Great Pretender & My Prayer, these original recordings have stood the test of time wonderfully well.
