Doo Wopp Show Rocks Bethel Woods
Feet were tapping, heads were bobbin and hands were clapping as legendary doo-wopp and rock and roll music filled the Pavilion and surrounding hillside August 2 at Bethel Woods Center for the Arts.
Accolades once again came forth from both the Master of Ceremonies for The Original New York Doo Wopp Show and several of the groups lead singers who called Bethel Woods "the most beautiful venue in the United States, the Recreation of the Summer of Love and This Great Historic Location."
Memories of these great old songs reminded one generation to the early days of Rock and Roll.
And wow......the suits and dresses worn by the Doo Wopp entertainers certainly added a high degree of colorful pleasure which everyone seemed to be enjoying by featured artists like The Sheps, Kenny Vance & The Planotones, The Chiffons, The Teenagers, Speedo & The Cadillacs and the legendary great Johnny Maestro & The Brooklyn Bridge.
It was easy to sit back and turn back time to remember this music and songs when there was a more simple time then what our generation today is faced with. Yes the good old days of musical innocence, happiness, good times and personal expression was found in the entertainment presented this night to Bethel Woods fans.
Adding to the great memory of Rock & Roll was a talented couple who danced and showed what Rock & Roll dancing was all about.
Great acappella singing (songs sung without background musical instruments) was provided by The Sheps who have been described as the perfect example of classic street corner acappella. Consisting of five distinctive voices they showed their extensive experience singing together to form one of the most unique blends of harmony today.
So many great old Doo Wopp and Rock & Roll songs were sung this night including "Sixteen Candles" by Johnny Maestro, "Gloria" by Speedo & The Cadillacs, "The ABCs of Love by The Legendary Teenagers, "He's So Fine" by The Chiffons and "Looking For An Echo" by Kenny Vance and the Planotones.
Truly a very entertaining evening with many in the audience remarking "hope they come back next year."
