Beltone asked the guys to change their name however, so the Teardrops became The Carnations. The members were Matthew Morales and Carl Hatton (both leads), Harvey Arrington, Edward Kennedy, and Tommy Blackwell. \"Long Tall Girl\" was recorded on March 2, 1961, and released in October, along with the B side ballad, \"Is There Such a World\", for Beltone's Lescay subsidiary. Newly re-mastered.
