- This 1972 version of the Moonglows features Bobby Lester catching all of Harvey Fuqua's vocal licks from the original, and adding a few of his own patented moves.
13 Dislikes? Are you kidding me?There should be a LOVE button!
Now this WAS AND IS SINGING. No echo, reverb, or studio with "bells & whistles" to enhance the sound. Just PURE VOICE.(s)
The Moonglows sang with a unique style of harmony that distinguished them from all other Doo Wop groups. This song when released in the late fifties drew much attention from the Rhythm & Blues community of listeners. The Moonglows were viewed as the premier Doo Wop group.
Bobby Lester is unparalleled - he remains one of the best tenors out there, IMO.

Just great music. Mr Lester will go down as one of the all time greats of doo wop.I thank God for letting me live through the doo wop era.Future generations don't know what they missed.
Bobby Lester was great and he died way too young in 1980 at the age of 50.That unique "Moonglow sound" was superb.What beautiful harmony they created!
Amen!
Blow harmony
I KNOW I'M BEING REPETETIVE BUT I LIKE TO GIVE CREDIT TO BOBBY LESTER. HE HAD A GREAT VOICE. RICH
Even when they pass away but their songs will last for years to come.
One commandment for all doowopers! Don't forget the beauty of this song and those who sang it!
The singer's presence is just cool. Not fake, real cool. He IS the real deal.
Sorry, jestal, but it indeed IS Bobby Lester. Harvey Fuqua did the lead on the studio recording. As I mentioned in my uploader notes, Bobby recreates Harvey's licks and adds a few of his own. In fact, Harvey was conducting the band off camera on this performance.
I'm so glad someone decided to remember they were Bobby Lester's moonglows and not Harvey and the moonglows. either way the music is still great
Harvey was an original moonglow
This song happens to be one of my favorite of all time I'm only 53 this song was released before I was even born and I find myself seeing this song all the time and it makes me so happy inside just to sing it! These guys voices are extraordinary Bobby Lester sounds just like he did on the record when it was released back in the day even though this is in 1972 this video here Lord have mercy this was a beautiful song I wish I could share with the whole world
Love it.
Bobby did a pretty good job. I saw Harvey with the Moonglows on TV and now that I have watched this video, Bobby did sound like Harvey.
LOVE IT!!
Blessings from Taiwan 🇹🇼😇🧧🥰💖
What a BEAUTIFUL song ! 😍😭👍
Welcome to VISIT Taiwan when the pandemic is over ! 🇹🇼🤗💖
Love the original but love this one too.
Pure voice and plenty of soul
Thanks for your reply and clearing that up. I am a tremendous fan of the Moonglows, and I think Bobby Lester was one of our great doo wop singers. Harvey Fuqua has so many talents, along with having kept the group going after Bobby Lester's passing.
I can't get enough of Bobby Lester and the Moonglows, this people, is when singing was singing, not like the crap they are playing today. Thank you sooo much for the post , and the memories & that was Bobby L singing, not Harvey
Fuqua, although both sang this track beautifully.
Yes thier voices were gifted from God.Beautiful music.
And they even sound just as nice when they got older.
I LiKe Harvey Fugua too , both of them good .
The GREATEST!!!👍🤗
read book by etna james and also read some about bobby in book.he had his problems but a super voice.
GREAT CLASSIC GROUP/SONG TYVM//
The best of the very best, luv the group. And the superb song!!❤🎀💞💋💋💋thats what luv is all about🙏😘
I agree! The method of singing is called "Blow Harmony" look it up on the internet.
Real singing right there. Unlike today's jokers
This is what greatness sounds like
Just a note to all who think this is Bobby Lester singing the lead. It is Harvey Fuqua.
Joyce Stalhut sorry it's bobby
Definitely Bobby, not Harvey on this video!
Not a chance this is Harvey Fuqua. THIS is Bobby Lester singing and showing on video above.
awesome
Boom! That's was the Bomb ! No one did it like Harvey but that kept it alive.
@vodkamarie These guys didn't need "autotune", either! Not like most of today's so-called "artists".
wow. great!
So sweet.

I have always thought that Bobby Lester had one of the best voices ever in the R&B genre. Thank you for putting this out there. Just curious.....where was this performance filmed?
@jamesbrown823 Oh, and for the record, I agree with your assessment of Bobby's voice :)
the rulers!
ROYALTY
@jamesbrown823 It was recorded for a local New York tv show. I don't know the exact location, though.

Yes. This is definitely Bobby Lester...they may both be comparable vocalists, but they look nothing alike...not sure how anyone could mistake this for Harvey Fuqua.
Sorry Joyce, This IS Bobby Lester singing lead!!!
Mr Shand or pj doowop know the answer. The original group was started by bobby lester. wikipedia
I think you missed the point. They've ALL passed away. The discussion had to do with who was doing the lead on this 40-plus year-old video. And there's no controversy any longer. It's not Harvey (who died only a couple of years ago) It's Bobby (who died some 30 years ago).
actually my father chuck lewis is stil alive and well in louisville kentucky...he is the one doing the talking on the song
Harvey is not even on the stage.
Is Bobby Lester to the far left?
Yes, he is.
