- The Harptones war eine amerikanische Doo-Wop-Gruppe. Obwohl sie nicht den kommerziellen Erfolg ähnlicher Gruppen wie die Drifters oder die Clovers hatte, nahm die Formation Mitte der 1950er Jahre einige heute noch häufig gespielte R&B-Evergreens auf, darunter A Sunday Kind of Love, Life Is but a Dream (im Soundtrack des Films Good Fellas verwendet) und Memories of You. (de)
- The Harptones are an American doo-wop group, which formed in Manhattan in 1953. The group never had a top forty pop hit, or a record on the US Billboard R&B chart, yet they are known for both their lead singer Willie Winfield and their pianist/arranger, Raoul Cita. The Harptones recorded for Coed Records and other labels. The Harptones may have been the first doo-wop group to have a full-time arranger among their members, and Cita knew how to work to Winfield's strengths. Their best-known recordings include "A Sunday Kind of Love" (1953), "Why Should I Love You?" (1954), "Life is But a Dream" (1955), "The Shrine of St. Cecilia" (1956), and "What Will I Tell My Heart" (1961). In 1956, they recorded some songs for the film Rockin' the Blues: "Mambo Boogie", "Ou Wee Baby", and "High Flying Baby". The song "Life is But a Dream" was featured in the 1990 film GoodFellas, and can be found on the film's soundtrack album. (en)
