New York, NY (Top40 Charts) treasurycollection.com announced today the site is now taking pre-orders for the first comprehensive DVD collection of upbeat tunes, emotional ballads and hard-to-find stage performances from the legends of the early rock, pop and doo wop eras in American music history.
The project, which includes over 150 songs on 7 DVDs curated by executive producer and director TJ Lubinsky, is culled from two decades of producing, recording and presenting classic hits and oldies on his historic television reunion concerts. The goal, says Lubinsky, is "To create and make available a video archive of the best oldies ever made for our parents and grandparents - this is the soundtrack to their lives, available for the first-time ever at an affordable price." Online pre-orders for the set at treasurycollection.com offer introductory reduced pricing of $39.98 including shipping and handling. As a bonus, pre-order customers will receive both an additional documentary special, "Doo Wop Discoveries" hosted by John "Bowzer" Bauman of Sha Na Na fame, and two live performance CDs of the songs.
Doo Wop and Pop music icon Johnny Maestro said about these DVD concerts, "The audience on these shows comes to remember and that's what we do—we get out on stage and there's an emotional connection and that's just the greatest thing in the world." In a rare interview, Earl Lewis of The Channels reflected, "We're singing about love, the guys used to go to the community centers or the street corners and used to sing instead of fight - and it was really love that brought people together".
