Thanks for the information about the Donnie Boyd Sultans group.
I was able to hear one side of both releases, ‘Tennessee Rock’ and ‘Popcorn’. Both were instrumental leaning toward a country sound.
Neither this Sultans group or Donnie Boyd were included in the book.
Some of Donnie Boyd’s earlier releases ‘Doggone Baby Doggone’ and With All My Love’ from 1958 would be considered Doowop.
