Songwriter Jean Dinning Dies at 86


This may be a little obscure for some of you.

Jean Dinning passed away. She and her husband, Red Surrey wrote the song Teen Angel. It was recorded by her brother, Mark, and became a huge hit in 1960. Like I say, this may be obscure, but if you were alive in 1960, you would know what I'm talking about. Click here for a video of Mark Dinning performing Teen Angel.

Mark Dinning passed on in 1986

They don't make 'em like this anymore!
