    Tony Williams was one of the best tenor ballad singers of all time. “My Prayer” is their best IMHO.

    I was born in the mid 60’s so this was already “oldies” by the time I started listening to music on the radio.. some music is timeless. It’s interesting looking at old top 100’s now looking back as some of those hits are gone gone and some that were considered ok at the time have become timeless

  • @hockemeyer1
    @hockemeyer1 Před rokem +7

    In the 1950s we called music records 'platters'. The Platters were a radio staple of the 50s and early 60s. REAL MUSIC. This is music than you can get up close and personal with your lady on the dance floor.

  • @KidBklyn
    @KidBklyn Před rokem +4

    The Platters were the class act of the '50s. Lead singer Tony Williams' voice is fantastic. Check out anything The Platters sing. "My Prayer", Harbor Lights", The Magic Touch", "The Great Pretender", "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes", etc., are standouts.

    YES, this is singing! Love the Platters and all the other truly talented singers from this era.
    PLEASE play more 50/60's music - what a magical time. We older subscribers would love to see you discover them, and the younger viewers should learn how it was done back in the day. Once again, I will request a very soulful cover of a Smokey Robinson song by a group of skinny, white Cockney teenagers from London in 1966. 17 year old STEVE MARRIOTT, absolutely kills it, so soulful it gives me goosebumps - much better than Smokey IMO!!
    "You've Really Got A Hold on Me" by the Small Faces. Thank you....

    If you want one of the all-time great voices from the past, here is a true legend: Miss Sarah Vaughan. Check out her live (on black-and-white) TV performance from Sweden, singing the jazz masterpiece "Misty". Guaranteed to give you chills!

  • @rs-ye7kw
    @rs-ye7kw Před rokem +3

    Back in the day, vinyl 45 records were called platters. Many a radio DJ would open their show saying something like " It's time to spin some platters".

  • @Lakeshore14
    @Lakeshore14 Před rokem +30

    Thank you so much for this reaction. I was just into my teens when this song hit. The Platters were so good. My fave by them is Smoke Gets in your Eyes. And you’re right, these groups from the 60s were so incredibly talented. No gimmicks needed, just their God-given talent. 👏👏🇨🇦

    • @mangelwurzel
      @mangelwurzel Před rokem

      Our high school cafeteria played "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" in the early 60's, and played it a lot! That and a few other oldies but moldies were sort of like aural chloroform, sedating we rebellious teenagers and keeping us behaved at lunch time.

  • @2zxodcfm
    @2zxodcfm Před rokem +6

    God, I wish this quality talent could return. Though this video is a tad before my Era which has me now on my 70's, I'm very happy report that back in the day, more than once, I enjoyed a version of the Platters in a Toronto vicinity dinner theater. It made for special outings as they performed their myriad of hits. Hits the likes of which nothing can compare currently.

  • @ptournas
    @ptournas Před rokem +11

    Great reaction. Dee looked very happy when she realized what song this was at the beginning! They are the kings of those beautiful R&B harmonies of the mid fifties to the mid sixties.

    You mentioned computers doing the work today! That is because people have become lazy and dependent on computers to do the bulk of the work today and that is why music sounds so differen and not in a good way!!! Computers are great instruments to HELP make music but they SHOULDN'T be the foundation! Talented muscians should be the foundation and we NEED to get back to that way of thinking!!!

  • @jodan4
    @jodan4 Před rokem +12

    I was in High School when the Platters came out. Late 1950's Smoke gets in your Eyes is a great one also. They played this at our Prom. Tony Williams on lead and the lady was Zola Taylor.

    Great reaction, guys. I grew up listening to The Platters in the 50s. Love their music, lots of great songs along with this one, especially Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, The Great Pretender, You’ve Got That Magic Touch and more. I agree DooWop was a contributor later music, too.

    Grew up with The Four Tops and The Platters, my mother had all of these albums by the greatest groups, love it! "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes", "Twilight Time", hell all of them are my favorites! 50's and 60's.

  • @karenstrong8887
    @karenstrong8887 Před rokem +4

    They were my grandmother’s era and I have loved them always along with The Ink Spots who I got to sit and talk with in Australia.
    This is my favourite song and it was playing at home when I got there in the middle of the night from the hospital. My Mother had just turned 44, she had a damaged heart and she had just died. I put my record player to just keep playing that song until daylight and then I couldn’t play it again for a few years. I love it again now. Thank you.

    My late hubby loved this song. He took me to see The Platers twice. Once when we were dating, and for our 35 wedding anniversary. I get chills when I hear this song knowing he ment it for me.

  • @dagmar.6954
    @dagmar.6954 Před rokem +16

    This is another fabulous group from the 50's-60's. This was the time of classy romantic heartfelt songs. Sadly they don't make music like this anymore. They had so many great hits such as "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes", "Enchanted", "(You've Got) The Magic Touch", "My Prayer", "Twilight Time", "Harbor Lights", "The Great Pretender" etc.

  • @stevefoulston
    @stevefoulston Před rokem +3

    Love them when this was released in 1955 i was 8 was lucky because my mother always played music on the radio "Smoke Gets in your Eyes" another great song by them "The Great Pretender", "Twilight Time" and "My Prayer all great". Peace out.

  • @asteverino8569

  • @laurengaudette7497
    @laurengaudette7497 Před rokem +1

    I feel that The Platters is the best doo-wop/Motown group! No one has done "My Prayer" yet which Tony Williams was so good in it! Love a lot of the doo-wop groups of that era!

  • @pageribe2399
    @pageribe2399 Před rokem +2

  • @jameslapham4326
    @jameslapham4326 Před rokem +2

    One of my favorite songs by one of my favorite groups. I think Tony Williams is one of the greatest male vocalists - ever. And the name 'The Platters' most likely comes from the nickname for flat phonograph records of 'platters'....

  • @waltw4537
    @waltw4537 Před rokem +3

    A great anniversary song, actually. The Platters. Just class all the way. Thanks.

  • @Macilmoyle
    @Macilmoyle Před rokem

    Trivia note. The guy who introduced them at the beginning of the clip was Alan Freed who popularised the term"Rock and Roll" and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986 for "his role in breaking down racial barriers in U.S. pop culture in the 1950s, by leading white and black kids to listen to the same music".
    His career was destroyed in the '60s by the Payola scandal and alcoholism.

    @planojag595 Před rokem +1

    The Platters are the ones that got me hooked on 50s and 60s Doo-Wop music! Please go down the rabbit hole with The Platters!!! My favorites of theirs are My Prayer, The Great Pretender, Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, Twilight Time, You’ll Never Never Know, On My Word Of Honor, (You’ve Got) The Magic Touch, and I’m Sorry.
    Oh, and be sure to watch the 80s movie titled Mischief which is what made me fall in love with this genre.

  • @musicaficionado2974
    @musicaficionado2974 Před rokem +1

    Also so much class, grace and charisma. You cannot buy that for love or money. You either have it or you don't. And the artists of that era do. Thank you so much for appreciating the great music! And don't argue with your wife. You will not win anyway. If she says it's platter, it's platter 🙂 Thanks and God Bless!

  • @jamesdignanmusic2765
    @jamesdignanmusic2765 Před rokem +1

    The vocals are wonderful - one of the top doo-wop bands. A platter - apart from being a serving dish - is the top part of a record turntable, the part that the vinyl record is placed on. The Platters had a string of hits - I'd recommend "Twilight Time" as the next one to listen to. The Drifters and Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers are two more great doo-wop groups from the same era. The Temptations were also excellent a few years later.

  • @GeraldWalling

    Back in the day, Platter made reference to a record. The DJs of the time call them that. BTW, this was my Fathers favorite group.

  • @coinneachmaclellan3121

    The Platters were essentially an R & B group until a Jewish songwriter, arranger, and producer, Buck Ram, became their manager, changed their style, and wrote this song as well as some of their other big hits as they became one of the best-selling groups of the 1950s.
