Singles Vacations Details
"Vacation" was written by Francis, Gary Weston, and Hank Hunter. Hank Hunter had written the previous Connie Francis single "Second Hand Love" and Francis would subsequently chart with the Hunter compositions "I'm Gonna Be Warm This Winter" (1962) and "Drownin' My Sorrows" (1963). "Vacation" became Francis' only hit on which she had writing credits. Francis has stated: "when ["Vacation"] was brought to me, they only had 'V-a-c-a-t-i-o-n in the summer sun.' That's all they wrote. I wrote the rest of the words and didn't even take credit for it." (In fact Francis has always received songwriting credit on the track.)[1] the song was originally intended as a B-side but proved more radio friendly than the intended hit, "The Greatest Sin of All."[1] Both sides of the single were recorded at Columbia Recording Studio in Nashville on June 18 1962, with Bill McElhiney of the Nashville Brass performing, arranging, and conducting duties.
