Both tracks were included on Nelson’s second album “Ricky Nelson” in 1958 (US

Ricky’s father, Ozzie Nelson plays the piano on “Someday”. Ozzie and his orchestra were famous in the 1930’s.
The flip was recorded in the third session with Nelson’s new band (Burton – Kirkland – Frost).
The UK single “Someday” had a different flip side (“I Got a Feeling”).
This was never released as a single in the States.
