Free Music Notes for Paragons Meet the Jesters
Free Music Review: This takes you WAAAAAAAAAYYY back...
Hit: 5 Stars
...to the time when doo-wop ruled the airwaves. "The Paragons Meet the Jesters" is right up there with the greatest doo-wop albums of all time. All the hits from two of the best doo-wop groups from the Fifties are on this album. And does this ever bring back memories... I still remember parties at friends' houses when I was a teenager, slow-dancing to "So Strange", "Florence", and "Two Hearts Are Better Than One" or boppin' to "I'm Falling in Love." The Jesters were five kids from Harlem who used to hang out and practice singing under the elevated tracks of the New York Central (now Amtrak), and the Paragons were five guys out of Brooklyn, and the music each group made was magic. Together, they make up an album that blows you away.
Just one problem, and it's not with the music -- why in the world did they release an album of great hits from two black groups with two punky-looking white guys wearing fake leather gang jackets on the cover? Did they think if they showed two black guys on othe cover, the album wouldn't sell? That may have been the case way back in 1958 when this album initally came out, but hey, this is the 21st century. Memo to the guys at Collectables: get with the program and change that dorky cover. This is no way to showcase an album as great as this one is.
