Maxwell Davis played sax on the Teen Queens record. Aaron Collins was the brother of the Teen Queens. Sam Ling was an alias of Saul Bihari, co-founder of Modern, RPM, and other labels. The Teen Queens were the first to record the song, released on RPM in 1956. It became their biggest selling single, with several follow up records failing to generate the same success.
