Listen!

Digitally remastered edition of their 1954 debut album. The Hi-Lo's are arguably the greatest vocal group of all time. In the '50s, they brilliantly combined Doo-Wop, Jazz and Pop to create an incredible new genre that would change the whole direction of vocal popular music and eventually inspire Brian Wilson to create Pet Sounds. Although they grew from the 1950s, the Hi-Los' appeal is by no means restricted to that decade. Their sounds anticipated the eclectic musical attitudes of the '60s and '70s influencing the Beach Boys, the Mamas and the Papas and Manhattan Transfer. Listen is a beautiful record that will appeal to fans of all shades of vocal music; Free Design, the Association, Harpers Bizarre and followers of Doo-Wop. El Records. 2010.
