Moon Out Tonight...


Don't think I have featured an Italian - American Doo Wop group from Queens, New York before but that all changes tonight with The Capris and their early 1960's hit "There's A Moon Out Tonight". Originally released in 1958 it did not become a hit until it was re-released on the Old Town label in the early 60's. A big favourite of John Peel, I could not even begin to do this track justice, so won't even try. All I will say is that it is simply beautiful and one of the greatest Doo Wop songs of all time..I do know someone out there who will appreciate this track so this is for you...

There's A Moon Out Tonight

  2. Sounds like a perfect evening George, with an equally perfect song to accompany it....

  3. Soppy old duffer...

    At it's best when it segues seemlessly into The Fall's 'Mr Pharmacist... '

    Marvellous stuff.
