Danté & The Evergreens
Alley-Oop CD

NEW RELEASE COMING SOON • PRE-ORDER NOW

Danté and The Evergreens are invariably perceived as one-hit wonders, for their U.S. Top 20 cover of The Hollywood Argyles’ Alley-Oop.
Yet their follow-up, Time Machine, also entered the US charts, and a later Danté solo 45, You’re My Miss America, was successfully covered by The Beach Boys.
After The Evergreens split, lead singer Donald “Danté” Drowty cut several further 45s, a couple backed by The Rivingtons, enjoying some regional successes.
This 32 track collection reissues everything that Danté recorded between 1960 and '62, with and without The Evergreens.
it includes their collectable, vastly underrated original LP in full, plus - as bonus tracks - three singles that he and his Evergreens sang on, in an earlier incarnation.
Much of this repertoire is incredibly difficult to find elsewhere on CD, while the bonus tracks are highly sought after by Doo Wop aficionados.
