The Tokens

Description:

The Tokens' masterpiece, the first album on the B.T. Puppy label! Known for their smash hit "The Lion is Sleeping," The Tokens had an originality that set them apart from the usual white doo-wop groups. This 1966 album proved that the Tokens were an outstanding music production group. The first album on their own B.T. Puppy label, it featured the hit singles "He's in Town" and "I Hear Trumpets Blow. From covers of doo-wop classics to numbers that anticipate the sophisticated soft-rock style of the chorus, this is a record that fully demonstrates the versatility of the group's musicianship. Five rare singles are added as bonuses. Commentary: Yutaka Kimura
