Reception

The Robins

The Robins were a successful and influential African American R&B group of the late 1940s and 1950s, one of the earliest such vocal bands who established the basic pattern for the doo-wop sound.

Music producers and songwriters Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller took two members of the Robins to form the Coasters.
