Item description from seller

Not a book but a group of three, 7-inch, 45 rpm "single" vinyl records from 1958. The Crests' "16 Candles," credited to Luther Dixon, COED CO-506, is very-good-plus to near-mint with some rub and a small PON to the red-and-black label.

As "Carol Connors," Annette Kleinbard went on to write the Rip Chords' "Hey Little Cobra" and the Academy Award-nominated Rocky theme song, "Gonna Fly Now." The year was 1958. Does anyone remember? Group of three 45 rpm vinyl "singles," for one price -- in fact, now reduced from $27. …
