Flamingos – GRP324 – Oldies and Doo Wop Music – January 15, 2024

Flamingos

A few notes from the net: Here is a partial list of the tunes by the Flamingos. Just noticed that *Nate Nelson is credited with the version of  “Would I Be Crying”. Johnny Carter is credited with being the tenor on “Golden Teardrops”.

A few notes I have on the Flamingos: On the Checker label with Ferdinand Washington and Stan Lewis with “I’ll Be Home”. Pat Boone covered the tunes for the white audience on the DOT label.
