Kenny Vance is one of the best. He mixes a somewhat comical act with some serious music. From Jay and the Americans to Kenny Vance and the reformed Planotones. He has been a record producer and movie score producer. Too many involvements and accomplishments in the recording industry to mention. Just a great all-around artist.
I love Doo-Wop more than any other music. Long live Doo-Wop. Unlike me, Doo-Wop never gets old. Thanks Robert Estrada for reminding us that there was an era when Doo-Wop music ruled the airwaves with its real music.
Kenny Vance & The Planotones are fabulous. I get lost in the Fifties everytime I listen to them, even though I grew up (musically) in the 60's and early 70's. Firme, brother!
My wife and I saw Kenny and the Planotones,104 times,and miss seeing him,in person.He has kept the greatest music,of our times,alive,and should be praised,for that.Miss him,love him,and wish him,all the best
U R the drop dead greatest group singing the oldies i ever heard! Comming from philly, and bklyn, singing in a group back in the 50s and 60s, i think i know a little about entertainement, and pal u r theBEST!!!!!! U guys sound better than the original groups. I close my eyes, listen 2 ur music, and just drift away 2 a better time in my life, im 73 and still feelin good, and u make me feel even better. T-U KENNY and the PLANATONES. Bless u and stay well.
Listening to this group take me to another place and time when life was so much better. jobs for all Less processed food 15 cents movies so much less stress simplified lifestyle Great cars So much less violence Wonderfuly nice girls, etc. Thanks so much for posting.
Kenny Vance has the most incredible voice of any oldie singer around today. He and his Planotones group are the best I've heard. Thanks for sharing his super sound with us.
Great collection of songs by Kenny & the boys. No one can sing the old Doo Wop tunes better. Best 28 minutes I have spent in a long time listening to this one! Added this to City Street Harmony Classic Doo Wop.
Melt me to the core !! This is REAL MUSIC........sweetest stuff, dreams are made of this sound.....Kenny Vance......you.....your Planotones.......move me to greater heights. I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART !! xxxxxxxxx RanDee
My personal favorite. Have seen him several times in person and Kenny and the Planotones never disappoint. His voice sounds like a 30 year old. Just terrific.....
What a great memories I grew up in southern California listening to the oldies when they were new Kenny bring back great memories of those days would love to see him in person but now living in N D we don't get many great artiest like him to visit up here so I watch on videos. I now have grand and great grand children who are now able to also enjoy the great music I grew up with these and love it as much as I do
Nothing like doo-wop people today or should I say the ones who never heard doo wop certainly have missed great music rhythm and blues love songs that tears at your heart. I do love doo wop
Love to listen to this great group. It is hard for me to let go of yesterday, when these songs were unknown to me at the time. But now, I float back in time.
I heard a Feb 2015 interview with Kenny and his talking voice sounds very strong. I pray his singing voice will return just as strong. It would be a tragedy to lose that voice with the incredible range and falsetto.
Saw them about 5 years ago perform at Western Ct.University in Danbury, Ct.-Simply awesome! Do not miss a show if they are in your area.I grew up in the Bronx where DooWop is still loved! Listening, Do you still wonder why?
I am a Red Hook guy and growing up we all heard of the Legend of Brooklyn "Jimmy Gallager", but then we heard rumors of this guy from Erasmus HS, Kenny and his group, they were not the Planotones then, they were kids and they were gaining in popularity. Kenny hasn't lost a step since then, he has a voice that only comes one time in a million. I love ya Kenny. And find that echo my brother.
When it comes to keeping Doo Wop alive NOBODY & I mean NOBODY does a better job than the former genius behind Jay & The Americans and the great sound track to The Alan Freed story"AMERICAN HOT WAX"A stage prescense second to none.Kenny Vance get better Kenny I miss you my man!
Dedicated To Mike B., who past on Monday, of this week, who loved Doo-Wop ... and was friends with Kenny Vance ... we went to many, many shows and concerts together, way back when You will be in my heart forever, Mike. Brooklyn back in the day
Kenny, did you sing with Jay and the Americans one time? If so, I saw you at a club in Brooklyn and you lit my cigarette. Keep the oldies coming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know which came first, the track staring at 11.30 or Albatross by Fleetwood Mac but..............I'd appreciate the name of the track please. :)
Anybody know if this "greatest hits" is available any where or is it discontinued. Checked out Amazon - Ebay nothing there. Damn, I"d love to have this in my collection !
robert gagne I believe Robert Estrada compiled this collection for his UA-cam post but if you go to their official website Kenny and the guys have all their CDs available. kennyvanceandtheplanotones.com/shop
Huge, Huge fan of this man....No one like him today!!!!

These guys are awesome..I'm only 40 years old and was raised with this type of music but these guys are perfect as a doo-op group.

ps I highly recommend the "Acapella" album to truly hear how beautifully they each sing and create their perfect harmony.
