Hallo,
mit den Namensgebungen von Vocal Groups hat man sich schon verschiedendlich beschäftigt.
Sie können in (Namens-) Gruppen eingeteilt werden:
- Namen die schon Auskunft über die Anzahl der Mitglieder geben, wie
The Five Discs, The Four Lovers
- Vogel-Namen (bird doo-woopings), wie The Ravens, The Orioles
- Tiernamen, wie The Cobras, The Crickets
- Blumennamen, wie The Gladiolas, The Orchids
- Stones and Gems, wie The Diamonds, The Opals
- Namen nach Erdteilen oder Staaten, wie The Orientals, The Trinidads
Das sollen nur einige Beispiele sein, zu denen ich noch mehrere Namen aufzeigen möchte. Nachdem schon auf die „car models“ eingegangen wurde, möchte ich hier einige
"Four"- und "Five" Vocal Groups aufführen, angeregt durch Hardi's Scan-Beiträge.
