Hilton (Carole Bennett)

 


 

 *

Record listed at Rockin' Country Style (no location). Nice record, but is it rockabilly?

Singer from Long Island, New York. In 1955 she was a winner on the Arthur Godfrey "Talent Scouts" television show. As a result she was signed to the Rama label in New York and, shortly afterward, to the Capitol label before recording for the Hilton label in 1957. Record re-issued by Verve Records on the West Coast. See her discography at 45cat.

Location is given by "The American Record Label Directory and Dating Guide, 1940-1959" by Galen Gart at 510 Madison Avenue, NYC.
