I missed the show, wish I had seen it. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" was the most beautiful of all the Doo-Wop songs, in my opinion. It just melted me smooth away. They also did "You Can't Sit Down" which was one of the greatest rave-ups ever recorded...the Tokens were awesome. Rest in peace, Hank. You gave us a lot of great music. WC1
