I just found out 'The Earls' first album was on Rome Records 1961 I thought I had the first album, what a bummer.

Ollie,

I am looking for a DVD that really is a good representation of the doo w o p era. Can you recommend one?

Thanks,

Steve Heller

Steve there are thousands of CD's out there with d o o w o p on them, there are even CD's with all Bronx groups, Brooklyn, Philly.....or CD's with various groups, I don't think there's one CD out there, maybe one of the sets from the PBS series of d o o w o p with a little of this and that, I think there are 3/4 CD's to a set, that might be what your looking for. Hope I've helped you.

I agree.

Check out the DvD Doo *** collection which was aired on many PBS stations over the last few years. It's a good buy for the money.

There is also a dvd set from time life called malt shop something i dont remember but I heard its great.

oh ok is their more songs with larry and the earls on them pbs dvds?

Larry Chance and the Earls are going to be in New Jersey on Aug. 19, 2009. Concert is free and is at 5:30 pm on Boulevard East.

I just came back from seeing and hearing Larry Chance and the Earls in Guttenberg, N.J. They were really great. All the songs they did brought me back to the 50s in the Bronx.

Does anyone remember Larry Chance's real name when he was living in the Bronx, and what part of the Bronx did he come from? Was he from the Belmont/Arthur Ave. section?

By the way, now he is short and chubby, and he has all white hair. Must be in his 70s.

Larry Chance was born Oct. 19, 1940, that would make him 69 yrs young. His birth name is:

Larry Figueiredo born in South Philly, Pa.

Thank you, Jose Antonio.

thanks a bunch
