The best PBS Show I've seen for doo wop, was a 1998 show from Pittsburgh. I actually found it on DVD at Best Buy in 2000 when it was released. It's has both volumes on one DVD. Since that's been a while, many of those artist have died and it's probably the best collection of live performances from that era with full band backup and great sound that you'll find.

It's still available, I just saw new copies on eBay for $28 with free shipping and used copies for less than $10.

Before I moved to TV in 2011 I had 4,000 record albums, 800 CD's and 300 Concert DVD's. I only have the DVD's now, everything else I liquidated. However, with a smart TV and WIFI you watch just about anything on youtube. I've got over 8,000 live videos saved into 42 music folders on youtube. With a 5.1 surround sound system, it's almost better than going to a show.
