The president and founder of the Doo-Wopp Hall Of Fame Of America® has provided oldies but goodies to doo-wopp music lovers with concerts in Rhode Island and New England theaters since 1985, but the upcoming lineup at PPAC looms as one of the most fascinating ever.
"We always strive to bring not only wonderful music and memories to the audience, but find artists who gave us such great songs and who have been seldom seen in person. The PPAC show accomplishes this quest," noted Robbins.
Included in the concert will be all-time rockabilly star from the '50's, Dale Hawkins from Little Rock, Arkansas. He gave the music world the often copied, but never duplicated "Susie Q." Coming from Detroit will be the stars of the music sound track of "Dirty Dancing," The Contours of "Do You Love Me" fame from Motown. Also from Detroit will be the Doo-Wopp Hall of Fame inductees, The Diablos. These early recording stars from the Fortune label are best known for the classic ballad, "The Wind." Frankie Lymon's original Teenager, Jimmy Merchant, an inductee into both the Rock 'n Roll Hall Of Fame and the Doo-Wopp Hall Of Fame, will lead the way with the song he wrote, "Why Do Fools Fall In Love," and the other Teenagers' hits. Johnnie and Joe, the most beloved recording duo of the 'fabulous fifties' will perform all their classics, including their biggest of all, "Over The Mountain."
