The group had 40 charting singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart between 1955 and 1967, including four number-one hits. The Platters were one of the first African-American groups to be accepted as a major chart group and were, for a period of time, the most successful vocal group in the world. Originally managed by Ralph Bass, they were later managed by songwriter Buck Ram. Inducted into Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1990 (Performer). the presented albums: 1) The Platters – The Platters' Golden Hits Label: Mercury – 825 151 QY Country: Netherlands Released: 1977 Genre: Funk / Soul Style: Rhythm & Blues, Soul cvr vg+ media excellent 2) The Platters – Original Vol.1 Label: Musidisc – 30 CO 1432, Musidisc – CO 1432 Series: Collection Or Compilation Country: France Released: 1977 Genre: Funk / Soul cvr vg++ media excellent 3) The Platters – Rock And Roll Classics Vol. Label: Stateside – 5C 052 92071 Series: Rock And Roll Classics – Vol. 4 Country: Netherlands Genre: Pop Style: Soul, Ballad cvr vg+ media excellent 4) The Platters – Greatest Hits Label: Surprise (3) – JTU AL 69 Country: Belgium Released: 1981 Genre: Jazz cvr vg+ media excellent 5) The Platters – Greatest Hits 2 Label: Philips – 9279 107 Series: Success Series Country: Netherlands Genre: Pop Style: Ballad cvr vg+ media excellent 6) Sights & Sounds – The Platters Golden Melodies Label: Rainbow – RAINBOW 120658 Format: Vinyl, 12", Maxi-Single Country: Belgium Released: 1984 Genre: Funk / Soul, Pop Style: Rhythm & Blues cv vg+ media excellent 7) The Platters – My Praye Label: Hallmark Records – SHM 876 Compilation, Stereo Country: UK Released: 1975 Genre: Rock, Funk / Soul Style: Doo Wop, Soul cvr vg+ media excellent 8) The Platters – The Platters' Golden Hit Label: Mercury – 135 951 MCY Country: Netherlands Released: 1972 Genre: Pop Style: Doo Wop, Rhythm & Blues, Vocal cvr vg+ media vg++ 9) The Platters – The Platters Collection Label: Pickwick Records – PDA 003 Format: 2 x LP, Compilation, Stereo, Gatefold Country: UK Genre: Rock, Funk / Soul, Pop Style: Ballad, Classic Rock, Soul, Doo Wop cvr: excellent media : excellent 10) Various – The Soul Goes On Label: RCA International (Camden) – PJL 1-8029 Country: Holland Released: 1975 Genre: Funk / Soul Style: Soul, Disco cvr vg+ media vg++ 11) The Trammps – The Legendary Zing Album Label: Buddah Records – BDS 5641 Country: Netherlands Released: 1975 Genre: Funk / Soul Style: Soul, Disco cvr vg+ media excellent 12) The Platters, Lloyd Price, Little Richard – The Very Best Of The Platters, Lloyd Price And Little Richard Label: K-Tel – TN 806317 Country: Holland Released: 1973 Genre: Rock, Pop Style: Rock & Roll cvr vg+ media excellent 13) Various – Tamla-Motown Is Hot, Hot, Hot!
