Debut Album Plus Yours Forever

~ Release by Billy Ward & His Dominoes (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

Despite indications to the contrary in the cover art, d1t02 is in fact the version of Over the Rainbow by the Checkers, not the Dominoes version. (Multiple MB releases contain that ~2:45 version, but none of them scanned as of this writing.)
