These were the kids who were teenagers in the mid-fifties, about 10 years before I was. I think they were the golden years.

Very sad that we have lost and are losing all these old doo-woopers! One of the finest musical eras ever IMHO.

Thank you very much for posting this. Beaumont and the other dog-woopers were a major part of my growing up. As I get older, I love to hear the music again and the memories that go with it. RIP Jimmy.

Loved their music.
At the dances, "Since I Don't Have You", was always a "Ladies' Choice".
Thanks for the memories.
