Teenage Party (misremembered by Frank Zappa as Teenage Dance Party) is a 1956 compilation album with doo-wop music, produced by Gee Records. It features songs by The Cleftones, The Wrens, The Valentines, The Harptones and The Crows.
"The first rock and roll album I ever saw was around 1957 -- Teenage Dance Party. The cover showed a group of VERY WHITE TEENS, dancing, with confetti dangling all over the place near some soda bottles. Inside was a collection of songs by black doo-wop groups."
- Frank Zappa in The Real Frank Zappa Book
The opening track, Little Girl Of Mine by The Cleftones, was in 1984 covered by Zappa and The Mothers.
