Runaround Who? 30 Songs Influenced by Dion DiMucci
Bronx legend Dion DiMucci inspired so many records with his massive hits “Runaround Sue” and “The Wanderer”, certainly enough to warrant a compilation from collector’s-friend label Teensville Records! Runaround Who plays like a long-lost Dion greatest hits collection, but without any of the songs actually being by Dion. There are 30 examples of different artists (and their accompanying managers, record labels and producers) who tried to cash in on Dion’s sound. Artists Carlo, Kenny Chandler, Trade Martin, Vinnie Monte and many more! Features a full 12 page color booklet with label information and track-by-track liner notes.
