It's scary what a little sexual revolution mixed with '50s doo wop mixed with 1980s street gangs can give you. And the God Damn Doo Wop Band consists of some scary mothers!
The three chic dolls who make up the band's singers can be seen on the album cover toting a baseball bat, which I have no reason to believe they won't use if provoked. Behind the bat are some good-looking legs clad in poodle skirts that seem to say "guard dog on duty – enter at your own risk."
Their album, "Broken Hearts," provides some of the most entertaining and innovative rock I've heard this year. Rivaling the B-52's in harmonic power and hand clapping, "Broken Hearts" could easily be the soundtrack to a Happy Days sock hop or any Frankie Avalon movie. Richie Cunningham would be all over this band, in fact, it's likely Richie's sister Joanie and Scott Baio's Chachi would've spun this record at their wedding. And who am I to disagree with Richie Cunningham, let alone Joanie and Chachi?
