• Track Listing

It’s a cold, hard fact that some groups are crucial to their genre but aren’t a big part of its chart history. Such was true for the Harptones, one of the greatest doo-wop groups but the owners of just two hits: "Why Should I Love You" and "What Will I Tell My Heart." This stellar spotlight on their elegant sound (featuring the distinctive tenor voice of Willie Winfield) features their best cuts on an array of labels plus their performances with Mabel King, Ruth McFadden, Bunny Paul, Carol Blades and more. The aforementioned hits join "Devil in Velvet," "Foolish Me," "I Remember," "Cry Like I Cried," "School Boy," "Three Wishes," "Oo Wee Baby," "Love Me," "So Soon," "Honey Love," "Forever Mine," "Symbol of Love," "I’ll Never Tell"…54 tracks!
