June 29, 2022 Records of the Day

Rosie Hamlin was only 14 when she wrote the lyrics to one of Rock and Roll’s early classics. At 15 she recorded “Angel Baby” for Highland Records. A copy from 1960 is worth up to $50.00. John Lennon said it was his all-time favorite song. Due to a royalty dispute, Rosie left Highland and signed with Brunswick Records who in 1961 released her album, “Lonely Blue Nights.” A mono copy is worth up to $250.00. But a stereo copy can get you $350.00 today.
