It's no secret that singer Connie Francis provided the singing voice for Tuesday Weld in the movie, Rock Rock Rock. The songs she sang, "I Never Had A Sweetheart" and "Little Blue Wren", were released by Connie shortly before she finally made a name for herself in 1957 with "Who's Sorry Now". Also prior to that success, Connie's voice could be heard providing the singing voice for Freda Holloway in the 1957 movie, Jamboree. Her co-star, Paul Carr, did his own singing, and even went so far as to have two of the songs released on the Chancellor label (#1007). The song, "If Not For You" was a solo by Paul, while "Who Are We To Say" was a duet with Connie's vocal in the movie. However, on the record, the vocal was done by another singer, Fran Lori.
Back to Tuesday... It wasn't until the Fall of 1962 that Tuesday finally proved that she could sing on her own. Or at least she tried. The newly turned 19 year old recorded two sides for the Plaza label (#508) out of Hollywood, California. One side, "Are You The Boy", was a nice mildly uptempo number common to the girl sounds of the day. The flip side, "All Through Spring And Summer" was a mellow, almost Country-fied tune, offering listeners a more true account of just how well Tuesday could sing.
