    The Platters were a successful vocal group of the early rock and roll era. Their distinctive sound was a bridge between the pre-rock Tin Pan Alley tradition, and the burgeoning new genre. The original group members were Alex Hodge, Cornel Gunter, David Lynch, Joe Jefferson, Gaynel Hodge and Herb Reed. After signing with Buck Ram, the act went through several personnel changes before hitting the charts, with the most successful incarnation comprising lead tenor Tony Williams, David Lynch, Paul Robi, Herb Reed, and Zola Taylor. The backup musicians consisted of Louis Caron and Larry Menshek.<br /> <br /> The Platters formed in Los Angeles in 1953 and were initially managed by Ralph Bass. The group had a contract with Federal Records but had found little success before meeting music entrepreneur and songwriter Buck Ram. Ram made some changes to the lineup, most notably the addition of lead vocalist Tony Williams and female vocalist Zola Taylor. Under Ram's guidance, the Platters recorded seven singles for Federal in the R&B/gospel style, scoring a few minor regional hits on the West Coast. One song recorded during their Federal tenure, Only You (And You Alone), originally written by Ram for the Ink Spots was deemed unreleasable by the label.<br /> <br /> Despite their lack of chart success, the Platters were a profitable touring group--successful enough that The Penguins, coming off their Earth Angel single, asked Ram to manage them as well. With the Penguins in hand, Ram was able to parlay Mercury Records' interest into a 2-for-1 deal. To sign the Penguins, Ram insisted, Mercury also had to take the Platters. Ironically, the Penguins would never have a hit for the label.<br /> <br /> What set The Platters apart from most other groups of the era was that Ram had the group incorporate. Each member received equal shares of stock, full royalties and their Social Security was paid. As group members left, Ram and his business partner, Jean Bennett, bought their stock which gave them ownership of the "Platters" name, which would become significant later<br /> <br /> ---------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> Platters - American Graffiti<br /> ---------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> <br /> Artist...............: Platters<br /> Album................: American Graffiti<br /> Source...............: CD<br /> Ripper...............: EAC (Secure mode) / LAME 3.92 & Asus CD-S520<br /> Codec................: LAME 3.97<br /> Version..............: MPEG 1 Layer III<br /> Quality..............: Insane, (avg. bitrate: 320kbps)<br /> Channels.............: Joint Stereo / 44100 hz<br /> Tags.................: ID3 v1.1, ID3 v2.3<br /> <br /> Ripped by............: oldsteel on 19/12/2008<br /> Posted by............: oldsteel on 20/12/2008<br /> <br /> <br /> Included.............: NFO, SFV<br /> Covers...............: Front Back CD <br /> <br /> ---------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> Tracklisting<br /> ---------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> <br /> 1.
