Jukebox Hits of 1956, Volume 3

~ Release by Various Artists (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

impossible to know without a listen, but it would appear that the t05 recording stated as 2:08 on cover art (which would match her 1956 version, and this is 1956 hits right?) is in fact the 1960 version to which it has already been merged...
