yes they are..they were a return of doo-wop, rockabilly style from the middle 50's to early 60's before the beatles (w.ringo) pretty much wiped elvis and all rockabilly off the planet until the 80s. the stray cats brought it back and now you have psychobilly which is a mixture of the 80s 'stray cat strut' and the 50's doo-wop, rockabilly and as well as hardcore punk.
other old or classic rockabilly (if you will)
little richard
bill haley and his comets
elvis (early recordings on sun recordings)
the early beatles (with pete best--pre-ringo)
these are just a few...there are many many more
