...This is the whole kit and caboodle: 61-tracks of classic '50s doo wop, featuring previously unreleased songs, demos, and alternate versions, as well as every A- and B-side they released, from their debut "Maybe You'll Be There" on Rainbow Records (1954) to the beautiful "Island of Love" on Lost Nite Records (1968). The pioneering group influenced a slew of Philly vocal groups, including the original, pre-Teddy Pendergrass, Blue Notes and the Intruders. The Intruders redid the Hearts' most successful recording, "Teardrops," on their Save the Children album. For Collectors Only is a flowing gathering of smooth, classy doo wop at its best.(Andrew Hamilton, Allmusic)

Thanks! - Stinky
Super !!!
thank you 4 this beautiful music - Aussie
Thanks for this!
Beautiful hat-trick. Thank you RYP & Gyro 1996, also for the second job (zippy-mega) which you will have to engage more. Nico1950.
Great stuff !! TYVM
I bought 300 similar titles (from a collector who died) for $200 total at one time this summer - that's all they wanted. This box set cost me something like 75 cents.
Gosh, Gyro. You’re either a highwayman or a kid in a toy shop. Like you I have so much music I’ll never be able to listen to. But that’s not the point. Having it is the point. I’ll see something and I gotta have it, nevermind that it will grow cobwebs. But I own it and if I were the least bit organized I’d be able to say, “Yeah. I’ve got such and such by so and so. Let’s listen.”
Once again, thank you Gyro for all your work.
Und ich würde dich nicht vergessen, RYP. Du bist der Zauberer, der alles macht.
You want your money back? lol
That is a good deal for sure. Too bad that another oldies lover has passed away. I'm sure he would appreciate that someone like yourself got the lot.
Thank you for sharing!
Gyro and RYP, thank you for this great Box, this is a 1962 Philly soundtrack. Thanks for using mega.

Lee Andrews was the father of Questlove, the incredible drummer for the incredible Roots.
Musical family, eh?
Thank you for this. Lee Andrews is one of my favorite doo-wop vocalists.
300 similar titles? Wow! We are in a barrel of iron. We lovers doo-wop rejoice and exulting. Thanks Gyro 1966 for the news, God bless you. Nico1950.
gracias, ustedes son grandiosos
