The Answer

[dipee65]

No - it's not 42. The question is did Dion (of the Belmonts) record a song called THE ANSWER
I've volunteered to try to find it for a friend, but have drawn a blank on Google and a music download program.
Does anyone remember this song, after all it's only likely to be about fifty years ago! Or am I chasing a figment of someone's imagination?

I just checked a list of 14 LP.s with no joy. The only one I can think of from that era would be 'The Answer to everything' by Del Shannon

Hi dipee 65
There is an extended feature with selected discography on Dion in the February 2007 issue of Record Collector magazine, just published. No luck. Do not see your song there. Will keep an eye out though.
I would be inclined to go with keeprockin too re: Del Shannon - and the song "The Answer to Everything" which also marked the debut of Joe Dolan..

Thanks to keeprockin and starmack for your efforts. I reckon someone at this end is giving me duff gen.

Hey keeprockin the Del Shannon track is an apsolute classic and I still play it too this day....
