Wow! Thanks so much to Karen, Marty, and Jerry for all these super songs.
This is terrific! I'll have plenty for my show, and for the folder that I
call Band Stand. Thanks again. Devon.

Hi Devon, I just looked up just ask your heart, and bobby socks to
stockings, and they're both from 1959, so you might want to feature the
songs from 1960 to 1962. I have one from 1960 that I have featured on my
site called the puppet song, which I can send, depending on how big it is.
I will send it to you off list, as it is way too big for the list.

Hi, everyone. Last week, I argued with myself on more than one occasion
about whether to feature Annette Funicello or Frankie Avalon in my Sixties
Success Story. Finally, I settled on Annette. This week, I think I might
do Frankie Avalon. Wikipedia lists his hits from 1958 to 1962. I'm
wondering if anyone has these songs.
Just Ask Your Heart <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_Ask_Your_Heart> "

Boy Without a Girl <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Boy_Without_a_Girl> "
(U.S. #10). Most of his hits <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hit_record>
were written <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Songwriter> and/or produced by
Bob Marcucci <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Marcucci> , head of
Chancellor Records <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chancellor_Records> . He
was less popular in the U.K. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom>
, but did still manage four chart hits with "Why", "Ginger Bread
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ginger_Bread_(song)> ", "Venus" and "Don't
Throw Away All Those Teardrops".

Venus I already have, but I don't have anything else. I don't have any
others. Thanks so much.
