The Teen Time series focuses on hard-to-find hits from 1957 to 1964 – the “young years of rock ’n’ roll,” when jukeboxes were chock full of hits and the future seemed bright and limitless. The later Sixties brought many changes – some good, some tragic – but these songs still fill our hearts with the carefree joy of that happy “teen time.”
Teen Time Vol. 3 is a pop lover’s paradise, bursting at the seams with big stars like Tab Hunter and Dodie Stevens and cult heroes like Eddie Holland (who later helped author dozens of Motown classics) and Arthur Alexander – the only artist ever covered by the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and Elvis Presley. Taken from such classic ’60s labels as Dot, Decca, and ABC, these tracks – including 14 Top 30 hits – are digitally mastered from the original tapes (either in pristine mono or rich stereo), and ten of them appear on CD for the first time anywhere!
