The Essential Paul Anka by Paul Anka - DeepRiffs

ALBUM

Volume 1

Volume 2

Buddah's The Essential Paul Anka includes previously released tracks, including the original RCA versions of "Diana," "Put Your Head on My Shoulder," and "Lonely Boy." While this is an affordable disc, most listeners will want a wider range of familiar material. 30th Anniversary Collection on Rhino is the compilation to look for.
