Review

Dion DiMucci had several hits during the '50s doo wop era and also a few in the late '60s when he re-emerged as a folksinger. Ten of Dion's classics are collected on Wanderer: His Greatest Hits on Laurie Records, including his original chart-topping hits with the Belmonts -- "A Teenager in Love," "Lonely Teenager," and "Runaround Sue" -- and his return to the charts in 1968 with his solo outing, "Abraham, Martin, and John." Casual fans of Dion will be pleased to have this material on one disc at a budget price. ~ Al Campbell, All Music Guide
