One of many hits by Tommy hits like this is what made Rock-N-Roll king of the music world.

The best quality Stereo version on YouTube.... nice song and nice upload!

[joelraab]

Never heard in stereo before. I think it's real stereo. Thanks.

[George-zu]

@ By the way none of Tommy Roe's songs were Bubble Gum but Summertime fun Music.. But groups like Ohio Express were known for there Bubble Gum sound.. Tommy Roe's tunes were also Rock-A-Billy to Ballads

Nice to hear a stereo version. I have the original vinyl single from 1962 but needless to say it is Mono.

Hello Sheila, I knew I'd meet you here!

[TheGrandmasterMan]

This is so close a rip of Buddy Holly & his sound, that it suggests that Holly could have continued having hits well into the 60s. He wrote his own stuff and already had the classic guitars, bass and drums set-up. Above all he could write some killer tunes.

Drummer, Jerry Allison of the Crickets. This is one of the records I have. The mono version is better because the drums really stand out. Jerry Allison, Buddy's former drummer does the backbeat on both the stereo and mono versions.

thanks this helped me confirm yes my record player is running slow. also good song thanks for the post.

[therabidscorpion]

I'm sure Buddy Holly would have LOVED this song!

[capitangorila]

The Beatles played this song in 1962 singing by George Harrison and exist a Beatles Recording of "Sheila"

[countrypaul]

The also excellent original is on Judd from 1960. The Buddy Holly-style treatment came from producer Felton Jarvis. I consider this one of the best singles of the early 1960s by an artist who proved to be far more diversified than his bubble-gum image.

Tommy quit his full-time job at General Electric ($65/wk.) to go under a record contract.

Man this is good wholesome stuff! I may be 36 but THIS is what REAL music really is! You all go check out my various covers of “Learning The Game “ by Buddy Holly 😊
