RRF Runaround Sue by Dion

This was Dion's greatest record because it featured his two most well-known songs The Wanderer and the ablums title track Runaround Sue. The rest of the songs on this album are covers of Take Good Care of my Baby written by Carol King and was most known as being a hit for Bobby Vee that same year in 1961. Other songs covered on this Album include Kansas City written by songwriting greats Leiber and Stoller. He was still is and will always be more talented then Elvis because unlike Elvis he actually co-wrote Runaround Sue his biggest hit with Ernie Maresca who also wrote The Wander and worked for many years with Dion and with
Dion and the Belmonts more Dion went solo. Dion kept writing and recordings song thought the 60's 70's 80's 90's and still records today at the age of 73 with a new album called Tank Full of Blues released January of this year. This album is by far his best work and should be listened to by all fans of 50's and 60's rock 'n' roll.
