This is Kathy Young...The Sound Of Kathy Young...Indigo Records 504 LP 1961
With The Innocents....
Best remembered for her 1960 smash "A Thousand Stars," teen pop singer Kathy Young was born in Santa Ana, CA on October 21, 1945. Her big break followed while attending a taping of Wink Martindale's local television show -- among the guests were harmony trio the Innocents, riding high on the success of their hit "Honest I Do," and after the show Young introduced herself to the group and their producer, Indigo Records staffer Jim Lee. At Lee's invitation, the 15-year-old Young entered Indigo's studios the next week, and backed by the Innocents she recorded a cover of Eugene Pearson and the Rivileers' doo wop favorite "A Thousand Stars"; not only did the record peak at number three on the U.S. pop charts that Halloween, it cracked the R&B Top Ten as well. The follow-up "Happy Birthday Blues" reached the number 30 spot in March of 1961
