Despite their comparative lack of chart hits, The Harptones are one of the most beloved doo wop groups of the '50s.

This is by far the best collection ever of this superb group which includes hits and rarities with many of the tracks making their CD debut.

Features such classics as 'A Sunday Kind Of Love', 'Life Is but a Dream' and their biggest hit 'Why Should I Love You'.

Listening to the content of this 2CD set it is hard to believe that none of the material ever made it as a national hit let alone an international hit!

Fully detailed liner notes explore their entire career and achievements.
