Description
The Pete Chaston Doo-Wop Show of August 20, 2015 on Rock-it Radio (show #5406), edited and partially recreated in stereo for improved audio quality.
Note that the silly songs "Why Not" and "Darling Dear" that Pete featured on this show were in fact recorded by René Davids, but not in 2015. Both deliberately bad or overly dramatic songs were originally recorded on a 4-track cassette recorder in July 1998 and only intended as the audio parts of a rather elaborate joke about a purely fictional group called "Little Tony & the Due Whoppers", which was featured on a web page that was set up as a parody of Tony Fournier's "Record of the Week" pages on his Vocal Group & Harmony Website.
Check out https://www.vocalgroupharmony.com/ALTROW/rec_weekALT1.htm for an archived copy of what the original parody from 1998 looked and sounded like in 1998. (In this show the original "scratchy 78 RPM" copies of the songs were replaced with clean "CD quality" remixes without any "old record" noise.)
