The difference between "Teen pop" and "50's rocker" is a question of degree and interpretation --
check the rockers page for possible misfiles, yeah?
There's more in storage, but this will have to do for the time being. Maybe I'll catch up someday.
TERI ALLEN - Poor Little Puppy/ Canadian American (USA) CA-149 stVG++ 12
(WLP, 1963. Co-written by Paul Vance, but it's goopy, not nerdy, funny or skeezy. B-side is
Spaniels' classic done up honkin'-sax big-band style, Mort Garson arrangements.)
JOHN ANDREA - You're Thirteen/Take Her Reprise (USA) 0341 VG++ 12
(Sappy ballad two-sider; plug-side written by Johnny Burnette, NOT a reworking of "You're
Sixteen". Jimmy Bowen produced, gave it the big Spector sound and did it real good.)
FRANKIE AVALON - Sleeping Beauty/ Chancellor 1095 VG++ 12
(Dreamy ballad with whispery vocal and swoony strings. Flip's a bit more jazzy/loungy; walking
bass, brass section, Sinatra/Darin mannerisms...)
BISCAYNES - Close The Door/Goodbye Mastertone (USA) 3044 NM-- OFFERS
(RARE white doo-wop/teen from Minnesota. Acoustic guitar + vocal trio on the ballad side,
rocker side is same plus drums. Ballad sounds like Kingston Trio covering a soggy Bobby
Vee ballad, I didn't personally dig it none. The rocker side, though, is gormless and
charming. Imagine a marginally-competent group like the Bell Notes trying to do "Little
Darlin' " or a fancy Dion/Belmonts arrangement and... um... not coming close to nailing
it. Plus the drums really sound like a trash can. If you speak 'amateurish'... Here's an
amazing link to amazing mp3.s of this not-so-amazing 45: http://www.box.net/shared/hp78guxibz )
BLENDERS - I'm Following You/Since I Kissed My Baby Goodbye RCA (USA) 7009 stVG++ 10
(UH-oh, ASCAP songs from H'wood musicals, always a bad sign. Big band/Four Freshmen-type
quartet, Mitchell Ayres Orchestra. Shouldn't even be on this page...)
PAT BOONE - Sugar Moon/ Dot 15750 VG++/NM- 18
(Lightly-swinging piano-triplet ballad b/w a mushy one with strings and angelic choir.)
PAT BOONE - I'll Remember Tonight/ Dot 15840 @VG++/NM- 12
PAT BOONE - A Closer Walk With Thee EP Dot DEP 1056 VG++/stVG+ 10
(Pat seems to be trying out some bluesy intonations on these four devotional songs, and the
backing tracks are kinda subdued. Some organ, some lead-guitar, not heavily schmaltzed-up
at all.)
PAT BOONE - Four By Pat EP Dot DEP 1057 VG++/VG++ 12
(Four for Mom and Dad here --- a calypso cash-in with crassly sexist lyrics, a religious-
themed country-western number and two broadway showtunes. One of em is kinda blues/r&b
flavored, at least by Pat's standards. Gotta give him SOME credit...)
PAT BOONE - Pat's Great Hits EP. Dot DEP 1083 VG++/VG+ 10
(Several of his teen/pop chart hits, incl. his version of "I Almost Lost My Mind.")
CABLES - Choo-Choo/ RCA (USA) 37-7839 NM- 10
(AKA The Limeliters? 1961. Offbeat teen rocker with some novelty content, fast & spazzy
guitar break. Flip's a schlager. Unpopular 'compact-33' format didn't take off, gives
the record some fetish-appeal.)
CAPRI SISTERS - Is It True?/Hush-A-Bye Newtown (USA) 5008 NM 15
(Promo label. Big-sounding, brassy girl-soul with more than a hint of big-band/Vegas sound.
Flip's a mournful, offbeat ballad. Northern title? Only other copy on line is 27 USD/VG+.)
TOMMY CASASSA - Three Rows Over/ Valli (USA) 103 VG- 3
(Cute big-beat orchestral teen-bopper b/w beat-ballad. Bit of a Sedaka flavor. And hey, he
wrote his own material! XOL, etc.)
NAN CASTLE - A Steady Baby/ RCA (USA) 7042 VG 3
(1957. Uptempo bopper with group; flip is slower, vaguely countryish.)
CHANTELS - Glad To Be Back/Look In My Eyes Carlton (USA) 555 VG++ 15
(Sweet, plushy ballad with rich vocal harmonies, tympani, strings.)
BOBBY CHARLES - Everybody's Laughing/ Jewel (USA) 728 VG++ 15
(1964. Country-singer/soul crossover; hillbillypolitan vocals, horn section, seen described as
'swamp-pop'... Uptempo/ballad, like always... not quite blue-eyed soul, unclassifiable oddball
sound -- just sits outside of genres, smirking and picking boogers. First release on Louisiana
blues/r&b label.)
CHIFFONS - A Love So Fine/Only My Friend Laurie (USA) 3195 VG++ 7
OR @VG+ 4
(Appealing GG stuff from the nice-girl side of the fence. A-side sweet but a little stiff and
swingless, B-side's an uptempo bopper that shows off their doo-wop flavored roots. TOKENS
involvement.)
CHIFFONS - Sweet Talking Guy/Did You Ever Go Steady? Laurie (USA) 3340 VG+ 3
(1966, seems like this was one of their biggest hits...)
CHORDETTES - Teenaged Goodnight/ Cadence 1299 VG+ 6
(Teenaged Cash-in... pretty darn square there, bear.)
LOU CHRISTIE - You Were The One/ Three Brothers THB 403 NM- 10
(1973-75 on this label. Countrypolitan singer-songwriter AOR, how's that? Add "Jimmy Webb".
Flip's utopian flowerpop.)
CINDY AND LINDY - Brigitte's Song/ ABC-Par (USA) 9847 NM- 5
(Orchestral-ballad two-sider, movie-soundtrack song and a glib, smirky "tourist-love in Mexico"
tune that pushed all of my "ick" buttons, seriously gormless and creepy. "She no speak-a
english" kinda sums it up.)
JIMMY CLANTON - Another Day, Another Heartache/ Ace 8006 VG++ 10
(1963. Teen ballad with rhythm section and theatre organ. Oooh, marimbas! Ick, strings!)
BOBBY COMSTOCK & COUNTS - Tennessee Waltz/ Blaze 45-149 VG 3
(This would be an okay little rocker IF THEY HADN'T DUBBED IN A STRING SECTION OVER TOP OF THE
GUITAR BREAK. Flip's a teeny ballad with distinctive vocals.)
OLIVER COOL - I Said Yeah/Give Me The Summertime Roulette (USA) 4330 VG+ 15
(Promo label. Rod McKuen under a pseudonym. Goober-ish fast bopper with horns, strings and
yeah-yeah Brooklyn girls. B-side written by Vance & Pockriss, typically skeezy horndog
lyrics.)
KEN COPELAND - Pledge Of Love/MINTS - Night Air Imperial (USA) 5432 VG+ 7
(1957. Soggy, draggy white-guy ballad, teen/Elvis sound, with backing group. But the flip is
superb -- jivin' jump-blues with tonnes of teenage-hipster flavoring. Second label, originally
on Lin Records.)
KEN COPELAND - I Want To Go Steady/I Would Give My Heart Imperial 5466 VG++ 12
(Middlin' teen-bopper with pumpin' piano, guitar break & Anita Kerr-style background choir.
Flip's a ballad. Apparently same K Copeland who now is a televangelist? WO2L.)
CRYSTALS - Oh Yeah, Maybe Baby/ Philles 100 VG 3
(First release on Phil's label, first Crystals 45. Two solid Spector sides with all the
trimmings. Orange label first pressing.)
CRYSTALS - He's A Rebel/ Philles 106 @VG 3
(One of their classics, what a charming song. Flip's a sweet slow-dance about teenaged triangle
and heartbreak.)
BOBBY DARIN - Lazy River/Oo-Ee Train Atco (USA) 6188 VG+ 4
(Vegas big-band a la Nelson Riddle b/w guitar-rockin' teen blues.)
NEW!! 4/1 DEAN AND MARC - Change Of Heart/Tell Him No Bullseye (USA) 1025 VG++ 15
(1959. Dead-perfect Everly Bro.s imitation, bopper/ballad.)
MARY DEL - Yum Yum Yum, I'll Take You/ Cadence (USA) 1250 VG 5
(Mid-50's, ludicrous borderline-poor-taste taco-queenin' camp item. Flip's a Georgia Gibbs/Fats
Domino stroll, nice R&B ripoff for the year.)
BUDDY DIAL - Baby/ Mark Ltd MR-1007 VG
(Sentimental teen ballads with surprising zydeco/ska undercurrents on the A-side. Both song-
writing credits to (Ray?) Hildebrand.)
DICK AND DEE DEE - Young And In Love/ Warner Brothers 5342 VG 3
DION & TIMBERLANES - The Chosen Few/Out In Colorado Jubilee (USA) 5294 VG- 3
(1957, pre-Belmonts -- standard-issue teen ballad; group-vocals are kinda passive and choir-
like. B-side is midtempo with handclaps, fake-book "western swing".)
DO REY SISTERS - Everlovin Baby/Only You (Can Give Me Happiness) Poplar (USA) 103 @VG++ 15
(Two-sided cutesy uptempo girl bopper with sax break. Very young sounding on the B-side.)
DREAMWEAVERS - It's Almost Tomorrow EP Decca ED 2376 stVG++/@VG++ 20
(1956, mixed-group teen-oriented balladizing. Not any kind of rocking or rolling involved, but
two of the songs are quite purty.)
VINCE EDWARDS - Why Did You Leave Me/Squeelin Parrot (Twist) Russ-Fi (USA) 7001 VG+ 8
(Big-band crooning a la Steve Lawrence b/w sub-Vance/Pockriss novelty rocker. Los Angeles label,
Argyle building. Severe label flaking.)
VINCENT EDWARDS - See That Girl/No Not Much Colpix (USA) CP 771 @NM--/@VG+ 10
(1965. TV star + echo chamber + huge distracting arrangements. Ballad two-sider. Mann & Weil
wrote A-side, Ernie Freeman involvement.)
SUE EVANS - Don't Take Her Sugar, Billy/ 20th Fox 257 VG++ 3
(WLP. Attempted teener, would work pretty well if they had stuck to the guitar combo and
tossed the big-band arrangements. Not horrible... Flip's sultry lounge-pop. Love that
clarinet line...)
FRANKIE FANELLI - Tears, Rain/The Question RCA (USA) 8343 VG 3
(Pretentious teen ballads, trying very hard to be grown-up like Steve Lawrence or somebody.
Strings & harps & xylophones & I don't know what-all; B-side is an English version of one
of those Italoballads. David Gates produced/arranged. Warped, tracks okay for me.)
FRANKIE FANELLI - I'm Not The Marryin' Kind/ RCA 8872 VG++ 6
(1964, WLP. Macho, big-beat/Vegas ballad a la "Young Girl Get Out Of My Mind." Flip is a sub-
Jimmy Webb thing that wants to be meaningful. And sensitive.)
NICK FIELDS - Blue Tatoo/(Gonna Keep On) Loving You Dodge (USA) 803 VG++ 15
(Ferriday, LA label, Jerra-Lee territory. Teen-ballad b/w NOLA-style stroller. A bit blue-eyed
soul sounding, but still pretty teenish.)
FRANKIE FORD - I Can't Face Tomorrow/ Doubloon (USA) 001 @VG++ 10
(1967. Somewhere between Phil Spector/Bill Medley white soul and Paul Anka grown-up in Vegas
doing it his way. Allen Toussaint produced.)
FOUR ESQUIRES - Follow Me/The Land Of You And Me Paris (USA) 526 stVG++ 10
(Dreamy white-guy ballad with an interesting arrangement. B-side's a sorta-bopper, but it's
pret-ty mild.)
FRANKIE AND JOHNNY - Big Clem/Together Tonight Lido (USA) 604 stVG+ 8
(Promo label. Teenage fake-country with banjo, "Big Bad John" knockoff, by Italo duo from
who-knows-where. Flipside's more in the Everlys bag...but with banjo.)
DOUG FRANKLIN - My Lucky Love/Drizzlin' Rain Colonial (USA) CR-7777 @VG+ 10
(1958. Flavorful billy combo with echo and acoustic bass, but teener rockaballad over top.
Pretty tame, overall. Same guy as that "Exsanguination" novelty record... Flip is a draggy
slow ballad. Listed on RCS page.)
GALENS - Love Bells/Baby I Do Love You Challenge (USA) 59212 stVG 3
(Teen ballad/bopper-ballad with boy/girl vocals.)
RAY GARNETT - What's Your Name/When My Little Girl Is Smiling Twin Hits (USA) 2010 stVG+ 5
("Sounds like" label of budget remakes. Soul/pop, sweet teen ballads with strings. Not sure who
did the originals, but these versions make me think of Sam Cooke and Gene Pitney.)
PAUL HAMPTON - Play It Cool/Classy Babe Columbia (USA) 4-41037 @VG+ 10
(1957. Fast, gimmicky teen two-sider with rockabilly undertones -- but way overproduced for
R-a-B. See 'novelties' page for another one by P.H.)
MARTY HILL - The Lonely Man (That's Me)/That's What You Always Do Brunswick (USA) 55244 VG 5
(Promo label. Eddie Albert countrypolitan b/w very decent Elvis-62 teen-rocker.)
NEW!! 11/15 DOUGLAS HINSHAW - Come Back, Joe/Coo E Woo Ar Vee (USA) TEST PRESS VG+ 20
(1961. Rhythm section + female chorus; soupy teen b/w light bopper. Totally cool to see a test
pressing from '61, do you agree?)
PEGGY JONES - Walking In The Rain/Stranger Style (USA) 1926 NM 25
(WLP. 1965, Memphis label. Semi-countrified teen/girl sound; slightly flat and amateurish vocals
add some real-people charm. B-side's a mild bopper. Both sides written by singer. I wanted to
price it a little heavier, like 40.00, but what the hell, I got it cheap.)
KALIN TWINS - When/Three O Clock Thrill Decca (USA) 30642 VG++ 10
(Cute boppin' two-sider. Second label, lines & star.)
NEW!! 11/15 LEGENDS - Go Away With Me/Jungle Lullaby Caldwell (USA) 410 NM-- 20
(WLP. Teener ballad with a decent latin/slow dance beat b/w... oh, lordy... a version of
"Kumbaya". RSOL.)
LEMON DROPS - You're Gonna Be Sorry/Little Lost Angel Crystalette (USA) 745 VG+ 6
(Promo label. Not-bad teener with group vocals; they sound like grownups trying to slum, but
they pull it off fairly well, there's some decent guitar on the A-side.)
LITTLE EVA - Down Home/ Dimension (USA) 1006 @VG+ 5
(1962. Modest but mildly appealing teenage ballad. Flip's a new dance craze bopper & jiver,
them's always fun. I think it's non-LP.)
LITTLE SUZIE - Young Love/The Boy I Left Behind Burbank (USA) 6006 NM 15
(1961. Chipmunk-voiced little-girl teeny two-sider; voice is weird enough to make it a little
surreal, which is kinda nice.)
MARK III - Valerie/Man ABC-Par (USA) 10280 VG 3
(Folkies making mock of teenaged death songs. Pretty funny. Flip's straight Kingston Trio time
with protest/anti-war lyrics.)
BARRY MARTIN - Little Lonely One/ RCA (USA) 7864 stVG+ 8
(Tricky-rhythm beat-ballad with a lot of strings, somewhere between Ricky Nelson and Ricky
Rydell. I mean BOBBY Nelson and Ricky Rydell. Or... um.... You get the idea. Flip is fake
early-soul. Small SOL.)
CARLO (MASTRANTONIO) - Little Orphan Girl/Mairzy Doats Laurie (USA) 3157 VG++ 12
(Fun little bopper in the classic Belmonts style -- handclaps and a lively vocal arrangement.
Flip's pretty goofy, ho could it be otherwise?)
JOHNNY MASTRO - Model Girl/We've Got To Tell Them Coed (USA) 545 NM 12
(Slick orchestrated teen/wop two-sider with Spanish Harlem strings and a bit of a ska rhythm.)
EDDIE MCDUFF - Suddenly/Car Trouble Argo (USA) 5335 @VG+ 10
(Better-than-average teenish rock-ballad; flip's a goofy version of the classic "Wake Up Little
Suzie" teen dilemma with sound-effects and studio tricks.)
TED NEWMAN - Plaything/ Rev (USA) 3505 VG++ 10
(1957. Fast-ish teen bopper with 'nyaah-nyaah' chick chorus.)
CAROLYN O'DONNELL - You Called me Jennie(But My Name Is Joan)/ Atlas (USA) 1210 VG+ 12
(Uptempo teen bopper b/w ballad, lead clarinet on both sides. Only player in the orchestra that
had any swing/improv ability?)
ROY ORBISON - She/Here Comes The Rain, Baby MGM (USA) 13817 VG 2
(Promo label. 1967.)
DONNIE OWENS - Need You/If I'm Wrong Guyden (USA) 2001 VG- 3
("Dreamy" slow-dance teener.)
JO PARIS & ROYALITES - I Wish Love/Excuses, Alibis Countess (USA) 501 NM- 40
(Crude & primitive girl-sound guitar-pop -- handclaps and acoustic strumming, so it doesn't
rock hard, but performance & songwriting are at the Bell Notes level. Super-naive, quite
lovable.)
BONNIE PAUL - My Football Hero/ Crest 1031 stVG 3
(Grown-up woman singing schlagers about high-school girl issues. RED VINYL.)
PAUL & PAULA - First Quarrel/School Is Thru Philips (USA) 40114 stVG/stVG++ 8
(The epitome of wholesome TEEN; Paul & Paula are essential for a real understanding of
mid-1900's USA.)
PLAYGIRLS - Hey, Sport/Young Love Swings The World RCA (USA) 7546 @NM 15
(Cheesy but cute (but cheesy) nyaah-nyaah Brooklyn-gal kiss-off, along the lines of "Hey, sport,
you're a real drag." Awfully clever. B-side doesn't have quite the same 'tude. Some connection
to the Blossoms.)
PONI TAILS - Your Wild Heart/ Point (USA) P-8 @VG++ 10
(1957. White-bread girl stuff, kinda stodgy... but the instro backing is pure mexicana, from the
opening notes I was flashing on mid-50's bands like Los Alegres that have been comped on
Arhoolie -- both sides reek of Southeastern Texas.)
ELVIS PRESLEY - Are You Lonesome Tonight/I Gotta Know RCA (USA) 47-7810 VG+/VG+ 12
(1960. Bel canto ballad b/w appealing N'Orleans sound lite-rocker.)
ELVIS PRESLEY - Follow That Dream EP RCA (USA) EPA 4368 VG++/VG+ 35
(1962,four movie tracks (Follow That Dream, Angel, What A Wonderful Life, I'm Not The Marrying
Kind). Uptempo semi-rockers, fun to listen to...not that different from the tame & cuddly
high-energy 1958 Elvis of Teddy Bear and All Shook Up.)
ELVIS PRESLEY - One Broken Heart For Sale/ RCA (USA) 8134 stVG/stVG 10
(1963, from"World's Fair". Not-awful "Teddy Bear" style bopper. Flip's a schmaltz-ballad with
very strong vocal. RW, 1/2" tear.)
ELVIS PRESLEY - Take Good Care Of Her/I've Got A Thing About You, Baby
RCA (USA) APB0-0196 @VG++/stVG+ 15
(1974. Elvised-out country ballad with lead piano. B-side's more electric, funk-lite a la Joe
South.)
CAROLE QUINN - What's So Sweet About Sweet Sixteen?/Good Boy Gone Bad
MGM (USA) 13265 @VG++ 40
(Girl-group/teen-pop with elements of Spector & Motown; traces of an appealing "Little Eva"
vibe are buried under fancy but unsympathetic production. Apparently a popular record on
one of the club circuits -- popcorn?)
BOBBY RANDLE - Karen/Walking In The Shadows Shad (USA) 5007 NM 10
(Mamb-o-lypso teen b/w triplets-teen-ballad. Randle was a member of Lou Reed's band The Jades...
but this is very ordinary, average, run of the mill.)
TERRY REDMAN - Lonely/Come On Back Band (USA) 1001 VG 5
(1959, Kentucky -- teener ballad in the boys-named-Bobby camp. B-side's a bit more fast &
rockin', and it has a real guitar break. Pretty noisy copy, sorry there.)
REPARATA AND THE DELRONS - Whenever A Teenager Cries/He's My Guy World Artists (USA) 1036 NM 12
(Uber-charming teen misery, tune stuffed fulla understated hooks. Ernie Maresca writ it. Flip's
a bit more uptempo, also charming with handclaps.)
RICK & DONNA - I'm A Losin' Guy/Wedding Bells Will Ring A&M (USA) 710 VG+ 10
(1963. Big-sounding Spector/Bono style production, with some blue-eyed soul touches in the
vocal. Flip's in a Paul & Paula bag.)
JIMMIE RODGERS - Secretly/Make Me A Miracle Roulette (USA) R-4070 stVG+/VG++ 10
(1958. Ballad two-sider, big-band teen with lead piano.)
JACK ROGERS - Frankie And Johnnie/Never Want For More Keen (USA) 2021 VG 3
(Slow & kinda soggy, Broadway baritone styled vocalist. Flipside is a trifle little bit crisper,
still pretty bland. Herb Alpert involvement. WO2L.)
RONALD AND RUBY - Lollipop/Fickle Baby RCA (USA) 7174 VG+ 8
(Cute uptempo two-sider. I never knew who it was that did this song... SOL)
SANDY AND THE SOPHOMORES - I Trust You Tommy/Walk Away Girl
Columbia (CAN) 4-43089 stVG++ OFFERS
(Appealing white-girl group, closer to the Lesley Gore style than any other. B-side has a good
beat and a delightful hook in the chorus, should really be a mod-club dancer... if it isn't
already. Mansfield puts his Ex copy at 75 GBP, but this is a Canadian pressing, so ... OFFERS.)
SHANGRI-LAS - Remember (Walking In The Sand)/It's Easier To Cry Red Bird (USA) 10-008 VG 3
(Loopy & extravagant teen melodrama, their first hit. Did they bring real seagulls into the
studio?)
SHEPHERD SISTERS - Don't Mention My Name/What Makes Little Girls Cry?
Atlantic (USA) 2176 @VG+ 15
(Lovable big-beat girl-group with handclaps b/w smooth ballad action. White-sounding, but it
gets soulboy attention.)
SHORT TWINS - We Are In Love/ Jewel JR 1656 VG 5
(Over-the-top schlock teener with those beauty school dropout 'nyaah nyaah' vocals. Almost
novelty-level stuff. B-side is more restrained; it's actually a fairly attractive ballad.)
GARY SINCLAIR & V I P.S - Rock & Roll Rickshaw/ Obo (USA) 220 VG++ 12
(1963-maybe? Could be earlier, probably pre-Beatles. VERY OBSCURE one, kinda charming teen
bopper. Not genuine teenaged frenzy, but it's got a solid beat and you can dance to it.)
SPINNERS - It Must Be Love/All I Want RCA (USA) 8427 stVG 3
(WLP. Teen-guy duo with Everlys moves like you wouldn't believe; choruses on both sides are
TOTAL soundalikes. Ballad two-sider. )
TEMPTATIONS - Barbara/ Goldisc 3001 VG- 4
(Appealing teen/group white kids sound, reminds me of later Dion & Belmonts. Mid-tempo bopper
b/w ballad.)
MITCHELL TOROK - Pink Chiffon/ Guyden 2034 VG 3
(Goopy teen ballad b/w billyish teen bopper.)
DANNY VALENTINO - Biology/ MGM 12881 NM-- 10
(1960. Awfully cute hiccuppy teen bopp-a-ballad, somewhere between soundtrack-Elvis swivel and
Buddy Holly singing calypso.)
DALE WARD - Oh, Julie/Letter from Sherry Dot (USA) 16520 VG 3
(Southern-accented (with light hiccuping) version of Crescendos' teen standard. Flip's a tragic
teen love crisis in triplets.)
NEW!! 11/15 WINMEN - A Nickel Piece Of Candy/Don't Let Her See You Cry Rik (USA) 12364 NM 15
(WLP. Poppy c&w teener.)
BOBBY WOOD - If I'm A Fool For Loving You/ Joy (USA) 285 stVG+ 5
(Country-flavored teen guy kinda like Johnny Burnette. Cuts loose on the B-side with a novelty/
bopper. PURTY orig. fac. sleeve.)
PRISCILLA WRIGHT - Man In The Raincoat/ Unique (USA) 303 VG 2
(1955, Canada. Bluesy, atmospheric 14-year-old-with-big-band torch song, sorta reminds me of
Petula Clark.)
