Doo-Wop fans: Glen Fisher's "Doo-Wop Ramblings Newsletter" totally rocks. The original intent of "Doo Wop Ramblings" was to let Glen Fisher's radio listeners know what songs were being played on his radio show, "Doo Wop Revival."  As time went on, he became more focused on keeping his readers updated on the latest news and happenings in our musical world. Over the past nine years it has taken on a life of its own. With readers in 45 countries, it shows that there is a desire for anything and everything Doo Wop. Glen says, "we may be a small community but we are extremely dedicated to our music." To subscribe to the "Doo Wop Ramblings Newsletter:: newsletter@doowopramblings.org  You can hear Glen Fisher on Sundays at 6PM to 7PM on WJCT https://www.wjct.org/jaxmusic/anthology/.
