Dion & The Belmonts 20 Greatest Hits

If rock'n'roll was born in the Sun Studios in Memphis, Tennessee, then it's arguable it came of age on the street corners of New York's Bronx district where city kids like Dion DiMucci belted out songs with only their bandmates' voices for company. This form of acappella or unaccompanied singing was to become known as doo-wop, and it would have a big say in how music from the late Fifties on would sound like. Dion & The Belmonts sang their way into the hearts of millions with hits such as 'Teenager In Love', 'The Wanderer' and 'Runaround Sue', all included here on this 180g vinyl greatest hits compilation. The influence of the music contained on this album was incalculable: listen, marvel and enjoy.
