Track 17 of 18 from Rod McKuens early album Lonely Summer.
It was recorded in 1955. There is dispute over what year it was released. In Rods own words:
1953...was the year I entered the United States Army. I received my discharge in early 1955 and later that year came to Hollywood where I recorded “Lonely Summer.” It was released the same year.
According to Barry Alfonso, author of Voice of the Warm:
According to Rod, his first LP was Lonely Summer, recorded before Lazy Afternoon...It may have remained in the can for a year or two several sources give early 1958 as its release date.
Billboard reports the albums release date as Spring 58.")

Bonus Track from Rod McKuens early album Lonely Summer, included on the 2001 CD, A Safe Place to Land.
The track on the CD says this song was recorded 3/31/1958. Your guess is as good as mine. The timeline of this albums date of recording and release is a bit confusing.")
