Sh-Boom is such a fun song that we had to put in the hours getting It down. Check out these crazy vocals! Doo Wop at its finest! It is sometimes considered the first doo-wop or rock 'n' roll record to reach the top ten on the pop charts (as opposed to the R&B charts), as it was a top-10 hit that year for both the Chords (who first recorded the song) and The Crew-Cuts. In 2004, it was ranked No. 215 on Rolling Stone's "Top 500 Best Songs of All Time". | Under The Streetlamp
