THE GREATEST RECORD EVER MADE: Leader Of The Pack

From my long-threatened book The Greatest Record Ever Made! (Volume 1), offered today in memory of the late Mary Weiss.

An infinite number of tracks can each be THE greatest record ever made, as long as they take turns. Today, this is THE GREATEST RECORD EVER MADE!

THE SHANGRI-LAS: Leader of the Pack

Written by Jeff Barry, Ellie Greenwich, and George "Shadow" Morton

Produced by Shadow Morton and Jeff Barry

Single, Red Bird Records, 1964
