Hi, others I haven't said hi to yet. "Doo-wop" to me conjures images of things, visual and aural, that I don't care for.

Like - were The Coasters Doo-Wop ? :
en.wikipedia.org...
- maybe. Was Van Gogh an Impressionist? Maybe. But who cares?
A bad comparison - because Vincent was @ the end of Impressionism
- & The Coasters were *before* DooWop - I think is the crucial thing here...
Then again - they're calling contempo stuff now that's all slick & digital & manufactured 'Rhythm & Blues' - which always throws me...
Avatar ♥ 8:30pm
Ivan from Woodbridge:

Yeah. But what do you say when people ask you what kind of music you like? You gotta start using terms and most terms are inadequate to me and, anyway, I hate that question
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:31pm
Mr. Fine Wine:

I don't care too much about labels either BUT as I said the term "doo-wop" conjures certain things I can find unappealing
Avatar 🍷 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:31pm

I like most vocal harmony.

The nub of it - maybe : Is DooWop appropriated R&B to sell to white children... which might be fine

We are missing the point. The music comes in way faster than it goes out. Every show on this station is entirely different from every other show. Such diversity dissolves genre issues. The song is worthy or it is not. Let the public decide. And throw them a bone.

The beauty of Downtown Soulville is it's a Genre program with an expert & delicious focus: One hour; 23 or 24 soul 45s.
I've calmed down a little being exposed to it all for the first time ever - but it still lives me slack-jawed & thrilled.
I reckon it's the most reliably wall-to-wall solid Hour in all of Broadcasting.

Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

In another era - I used to think it was Eclectics versus Purists. (I'm thinking as a Creative type as well as Consumer.) But the whole culture got uglier. Then I came around to appreciating Purists as Preservationists. Hard to Eclectically like the best of everything - if nothing survives...
Besides - MFW likes other stuff I'm pretty sure... (We're in PostPostPostModern times after all.)
