Prod : Teddy Vann NB : some of these listings have no producer credit - it's 99% certain that Teddy was the producer but in the interests of accuracy where I haven't seen the actual record (or a scan) I've left the producer credit open. Any help in filling in the gaps would be appreciated. Somewhere along the line there seems to have been a Christmas album written and produced by Teddy but so far I haven't been able to track down details. ================= Compiled by David L.
