Often called Australia’s answer to Brenda Lee, Carolyn Young was a popular early ’60s singer who charmed audiences on Bandstand as a singing sweetheart and also appeared on The Johnny O’Keefe Show. Her debut single, ''You’re Running Out of Kisses,'' came out on the Pye label in 1962, and her protest song ''When Freedom Comes (Count Me In),'' written by Tommy Tycho, (remains a favorite for me from that era). She recorded with Festival until 1966 but never found chart success and seemed to vanish from the spotlight after her recording career ended.
