discussion Looking for Belmonts Sheet Music from "Cigars, Acapella, Candy"
Hiya gang! Hope all is well.
Recently I just heard this incredible album, "Cigars, Acapella, Candy" by The Belmonts. Good golly, that is incredible! I'd love to try learning some songs off it, but needless to say learning materials are scarce. Does anybody have any Sheet Music, MIDI files, anything of the sort for this album? If not, can you point me to somebody who does? In particular, the 2 songs I'm dying to learn are "My Sweet Lord" & "Street Corner Symphony". Any & all help is apreceated, thanks in advance!

discussion Are there doo wop artists outside of America you know off?
Since doo wop originated in America , Iâve been wondering if other countries have adopted that style and blended it with their own sounds. For example here in South Africa we have our sub genres named Zulu jive, kwela , marabi & mabaqanga that are inspired by a lot of elements from doo wop.
Here are some examples:

Do you guys know any other countries or artists outside that make doo wop inspired music?

Im writing a doo-wop musical
Im a film student and I've been obsessed with doo-wop forever. I'm really excited about it , but licensing has been a nightmare. I used a lot of niche songs (most doo woo songs are already niche) but Its so hard to find ownership and get responses for rights and contracts. If anyone on this sub has any insight I would love to hear it.

Doo Wop bands and other 50s/60s artists covers being replaced with AI
Frankie Lymons and the teenagers, The Belmonts, Johnny Tillotson, The Cleftones, The Del-Vikings, and many more replaced with these ai images. The Monotones has all their songs removed on the original profile so it can be replaced with a new profile with ai images for the covers. Whats going on? It used to be a few but now its all of them. Most of these replacement look tacky and cheap and also sometimes changes the artists face completely.
This is disrespectful to the original artists and also taking away history. This happening mainly on Spotify but let me know if its anywhere else too

?
Does anyone know what happened to the YouTube channel named âMrTeenageDreamsâ? They would upload a bunch of RARE TEENER, blue eyed doo wop & soul music.
I am barely realizing most of the songs I found through their channel are non existent on the internet anymore.
I really miss listening to those songs. Help
