December 4, 2021 Record of the Day

Johnny Burnette was a prolific song-writer who wrote many hits for Ricky Nelson and others as well as himself. Among his own big hits in the early 60’s are “You’re Sixteen” and “Dreamin’.” His album on Coral Records in 1956, “Johnny Burnette & the Rock N Roll Trio,” is among the earliest Rock and Roll albums and worth up to $1,500.00 today. Counterfeits exist and can be identified by the lack of printing on the spine. Original copies have identification numbers mechanically stamped in the trail-off wax. Counterfeit copies are hand etched. All known counterfeit records are listed and described in the Mighty John Record Appraisal Guide on CD. It’s available in the left hand column.
