Description
The Skyliners were a five-piece vocal harmony group from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania that broke the mould as far as the doo-wop sound was concerned. This 26 track collection chronicles The Skyliners singles released on the Calico label, plus the songs that appeared on their first LP and subsequent releases on the Colpix, Cameo and Viscount labels.
"Since I Don't Have You" romped to number 12 on Billboard's Hot 100 and featured the unique voices of lead singer Jimmy Beaumont and Janet Vogel.
"Since I Don't Have You" remains a classic recording and has been featured in films such as American Graffiti, The Age of Adaline, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai, Lethal Weapon 2, and TV shows such as Happy Days, American Hot Wax and Outcast.
Fans continue to keep the group's name alive with its own Facebook page...they remain one of the classiest vocal groups ever.
This release is sure to result in radio play on oldies shows across the UK radio networks.
Includes detailed notes tracing The Skyliners' career through the group's best years, 1958 to 1962.
