- Comments
- The String-A-Longs recorded two instrumentals for a 1960 single. Norman Petty's "Tell the World" and then an original by band members Jimmy Torres and Richard Stevens called "Wheels". When the single was issued the label reversed the sides so Petty's "Tell the World" actually appeared as Torres & Stevens' "Wheels". Because there were no lyrics the error was perpetuated and Petty's song became known only as "Wheels", and often it's miscredited to Torres and Stevens.
