Teensville Records presents another spotlight on the malt shop hits that should have been. Lollipops & Teardrops is a 34-track, eighty minute retrospective on rare and obscure pop productions from the era when the 45 RPM reigned supreme. Primarily culled from the years 1963-1966, nearly all the tracks are making their compact disc debut six decades after they were originally recorded. The 24-page full colour booklet contains a 7,500+ word essay containing exhaustive information on all the cuts.
