I was hoping Big Daddy's "Sgt. Pepper's" would get a mention, and I'm glad it did; it's been a favorite of mine for many many years. However, the commentator wasn't exactly right about about what Big Daddy's gimmick was. It wasn't recording a modern song in the style of a particular doo-wop era artist -- it was recording it in the style of a particular song. For instance, version of "When I'm Sixty-Four" was done in the style of Dominoes' "Sixty Minute Man". It's a pity they broke up and aren't recording any more -- and that their albums are so hard to find. (I'm particularly fond of their version of "Money for Nothing" -- done in the style of "Sixteen Tons" as recorded by Tennessee Ernie Ford.)
