The Tokens' unlikely blend of doo wop and what was, in folk circles, termed "ethnic music," resulted in one enormous and enduring hit: "The Lion Sleeps This evening (Wimoweh)." After that, it was all downhill for the group during their RCA tenure -- the biggest of their followup hits reached a modest number 55 on the charts. Wimoweh: The Best of the Tokens rounds up all six of their chart entries, some of which -- similar "B'Wanina (Pretty Girl)" and "La Bamba" -- repeated the "Wimoweh" formula. When those failed, the Tokens returned to straightforward doo wop textile ("This evening I Met an Affections"), covers of other vocal groups' hits ("Sincerely," "A G Miles Away"), and, finally, Beach Boys-fashion car songs ("My Friend's Car"). The anthology also compiles a number of choice cuts and oddities that fall in-between, from the gorgeous "Somewhere There'southward a Daughter" to the weirdly insulting love song "Y'all're Nothing But a Girl." There'southward a "Piffling Darlin'" retread titled "Dry out Your Eyes" and several songs with "night" or "this night" in the title in apparent reference to the group's starting time two hits. Wimoweh: The Best of the Tokens also includes three previously unreleased songs for collectors. For those who couldn't go enough of the Tokens, several additional recordings from their RCA period were made bachelor the same year on a budget collection, The Lion Sleeps Tonight.

Album Clarification
The Tokens' unlikely blend of doo wop and what was, in folk circles, termed "indigenous music," resulted in ane enormous and enduring hitting: "The Panthera leo Sleeps Tonight (Wimoweh)." After that, it was all downhill for the group during their RCA tenure -- the biggest of their followup hits reached a pocket-sized number 55 on the charts. Wimoweh: The Best of the Tokens rounds upward all half dozen of their chart entries, some of which -- similar "B'Wanina (Pretty Girl)" and "La Bamba" -- repeated the "Wimoweh" formula. When those failed, the Tokens returned to straightforward doo wop material ("Tonight I Met an Angel"), covers of other song groups' hits ("Sincerely," "A Chiliad Miles Away"), and, finally, Embankment Boys-style car songs ("My Friend'south Machine"). The album also compiles a number of choice cuts and oddities that fall in-between, from the gorgeous "Somewhere There's a Girl" to the weirdly insulting love song "You're Nothing Just a Girl." There's a "Niggling Darlin'" retread titled "Dry Your Optics" and several songs with "nighttime" or "tonight" in the title in apparent reference to the group'south first two hits. Wimoweh: The Best of the Tokens as well includes three previously unreleased songs for collectors. For those who couldn't go enough of the Tokens, several boosted recordings from their RCA period were made available the aforementioned twelvemonth on a budget collection, The Panthera leo Sleeps This evening.
