Once again, the never-created "Behind The Music: Remastered" episode chronicling the legacy of the Five Satins will not be aired on VH-1 Classic this coming Thursday.

DVR--set and ready to fire up. Essay on the way that every nominee in this year's class trivially relates to the Five Satins--eady to post. Spectacularly unrealistic predictions for next year's nominees built solely around the Five Satins and their genre--of Course.

Wow, I am surprised that In The Still Of The Night is not an essential song.

The Rock and Roll HOF should b3 embarrassed that The Five Satins have not been inducted. In The Still Of The Night is the anthem of Doo Wop.

Three hit singles.
Vocal Group Hall of Fame

That's all they have.

I highly doubt it.

Rest in Peace Fred Parris, singer for the Five Satins and songwriter of "In the Still of the Night," 1936(?)-2022.

Mr Fred Parris just passed away recently. He wrote In The Still Of The Night. Classic DooWop ballad. Love their music I'm a little biased because my brother loved Doo Wop so and he greatly influenced my taste in music. Should they get in because of one of the greatest rock &roll ballads? I say yes. Will they? I just don't know. As music gets gradually worse maybe the committee will go back and grab up the Five Satins.

My wife and I just got back from Cleveland after a great weekend seeing Rod Stewart and Billy Joel perform together for the first time in their careers and after spending a day at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. However, we were SHOCKED to learn that the Five Satins were never inducted into the HOF. This is a disgrace. In The Still of The Night was continually voted the number 1 Rock and Roll song for decades. It's time for all Rock and Roll fans to demand that the Five Satins be inducted now.

Please share this post on all social media.
