#196 Where Or When – Dion & The Belmonts (1960)


 
Doo-wop groups often recorded versions of songs from my parents’ day (often referred to as the “Great American Songbook”). Some of these were, shall we say, radically re-invented – see, for instance, the deconstruction of the Rodgers and Hart classic “Blue Moon” by the Marcels. Dion and crew, however, do a lovely, beautifully-harmonized rendition of this ballad, also written by Rodgers and Hart.
