Looking for a vinyl release for this one . Can only find it referenced to a Stardust 45 (URS 118) . Is that correct ?

It was a VJ recording, released originally on a VJ Dee Clark LP.  I don't believe it's ever been on a US 45.  The Stardust 45 is Canadian, and must be fairly recent (I would guess - maybe for the Popcorn market?).

Many thanks . Can't find it on the track listing of the three Dee Clark VJ LPs I've looked at . Have I missed one ?

Maybe it was never released on vinyl, and only finally released on a CD of Dee Clark VJ cuts having the same title as one of the original VJ vinyl LPs.  I'm not with my LPs now, so can't check.  Or, maybe it was only released on VJ's Oldies 45 series, as were several previously unreleased VJ recordings.  I'm sure I heard that song back in the '60s.

looks like the stardust 45 is the only vinyl release and these have all dried up as well ..perhaps as a result of popularity on the popcorn scene .

Did some looking around (now I'd like a copy) and found that it's available on vinyl on "Keep It Up" (Charly LP #1010).

The song is credited to "unknown" and has "copyright control" for the publisher which is usually a sign of an unreleased song.  

It's also available on the Marginal CD - "Dee Clark- The Ultimate Collection".

One listen reveals the recording was produced for VJ by Calvin Carter in late 1962, and arranged by Riley Hampton (probably recorded at Universal), and sounds like a typical Dee Clark (Conrad published) self-penned song of the period - (so much so, that THAT is probably why it was not released - as it sounded too much like several of his other songs that had come out as singles or on his latest LP).

This track .came from the Charly LP..Keep it up...crb.1010.  I use to play this on a Radio Show a few years ago.from this LP...as far as I know it's only on here..plus that Stardust.issue.for the Island Soul Scene
