This is the version of Telstar  that I remember. I'm sure it was
played on the radio in the 1960s because I remember it that way, and
it always got some airplay through the years.
I've heard other versions, but not until many years later.

The CD that TMD posted may be in error, or it is an alternate version
by the Tornados, that's what I'm trying to determine.
I have to search my mp3 disk library to find versions by the Ventures
and Spotniks to see if there are any matches.

The version on the CD posted is on YouTube, says something about
"Tornados 1986".

Why are the trolls so upset?
