Johnny Ace (June 9, 1929 – December 25, 1954), born John Marshall Alexander, Jr. in Memphis, Tennessee, was an American rhythm and blues singer. He scored a string of hit singles in the mid-1950s before dying of an accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound
Great song! I also have this on a 45, but it featured an overdubbed chorus. There were two different versions of the song. One is the original, and the second with an additional chorus. The song was featured in "Christine".
One of the first 5 78's I bought when I started collecting! Still a timeless classic to me!

@Westtoledoguy Yes! I just posted a while back when I played a 45 of the same song, but it had a chorus being overdubbed.
