I found "4,003,221 Tears From Now" by Kerri Downs on a WMAK survey from December, 1963. Anyone ever heard of this one?

"4,003,221 Tears From Now" b/w "Baby Get Your Hoss And Ride" is an Epic single, #9643, by Kerri Downs. It was a moderate hit in Australia in early 1964, little if any airplay in the US. A cover by Judy Stone, was also a regional hit (Top 10) in Australia, 1964.

Engine Engine Number 9 - Roger Miller

Great pick Silkie, I've been an avid Roger Miller fan since the 60s and how I missed Engine #9 is, well, not a mystery. It's, umm, best described with the analogy in the Stuart Hamblin written tune which was recorded by Rosemary Clooney, "This Old House".
