  5. "Sh-Boom" ("Life Could Be a Dream") is a #doowop song by the #RAndB vocal group #theChords. It was written by James Keyes, Claude Feaster, Carl Feaster, Floyd F. McRae, and William Edwards, members of the Chords, and was released in 1954.

  18. Jeder zweite KI-Song ist entweder Doo-Wop oder Motown.

    Das liegt daran, dass diese Genres sehr generisch sind. Man könnte auch sagen, jedes Lied klingt gleich. Allerdings stimmt das überhaupt nicht und da sieht man auch, wo die Grenzen von KI-Musik liegen. Generische Genres leben von der Persönlichkeit, dem Charisma und dem Talent der Menschen. Zur Not muss man halt nachts durch die Straßen laufen.

    Not as good as Vic, but still kinda Trek if you think about it.

    ... one of the very first racially integrated vocal groups of the '50s: Texas-born lead tenor Herman Chaney (aka Sonny Chaney) and Louisiana-born bass singer Charles Middleton were both black, while Detroit-born second tenor Valerio "Val" Poliuto was white and baritone Manuel "Manny" Chavez was a Hispanic and the only native Californian in the group
