Synopsis: The Drifters, one of the most successful of the rhythm and blues groups, as well as one of the few to outlive the impact of white rock'n'roll, exemplifies the rise and decline of the '50s R & B. Bill Millar describes the growth, influence, and fall of vocal rhythm and blues-from the gospel quartets, to the changing patterns of the '60s, to the present sound of The Drifters-and looks at many of the important groups of the period, such as The Dells, The Flamingos, The Platters, and The Midnighters. The book is fully illustrated and includes an excellent discography of the group that produced such hits as Lucille, Ruby Baby, Dance With Me, There Goes My Baby, Save The Last Dance For Me, This Magic Moment, Money Honey, Up On The Roof, and Under The Boardwalk.…
