The Five Discs, originally known as the Lovenotes, formed in the East New York part of the borough in 1954, and went on to thrill audiences for six decades! In 1958 the group recorded "I Remember," which reached #28 on the New York charts, and the group seemed destined for stardom, but as a mixed-race group they couldn't perform in a number of venues, and recordings of "Roses," "My Chinese Girl," "Come on Baby" and "I Don't Know What I'll Do" didn't do well on the charts. The Doo-Wop revival of the seventies breathed new life into the group, and they have continued an extensive concert and touring schedule since then. 20 songs, "Never Let You Go," "Let's Fall In Love," "Your Way," "Bring It On Home," "When You Dance," "Valerie," "That Was The Time" and "Don't Say Goodnight" are other favorites. Good stuff! |
