A number of people are aware that I like many genres of music. One of my favorite types of music is Doo Wop.
The American Heritage Dictionary defines doo-wop as a “style of rhythm and blues popularized in the 1950s and characterized by words and nonsense syllables sung in harmony by small groups against a stylized rhythmic melody.” I guess that’s as good an introduction as any.
