Jan & Dean belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
They created a culture that went beyond music.
They helped to create that California surf sound the Beach Boys are best known for.
Jan & Dean had a number of hits and countless fans.
Their music was good, clean and fun.
There was even a movie about them.
Yes, they belong in the Hall of Fame.
To not have them in is a shame.

I met Jan and got his autograph on an original album I bought when it came out, unfortunately never got deans to go with it. I sure did enjoy their music.

This is true, heard the same explanation from Jim Rush, bass player with "Papa Doo Run Run", who were Jan & Dean's backup band for many years after their comeback. I was at the concert in 1973 at the Hollywood Palladium where the "lipsynch incident" occurred, although at that time I didn't know it was meant as a joke.

I read it a little earlier this year, and it's really great. I wish there was a little more media coverage on bob greene..

That's Lisa Mychols singing that snippet of "...1, 2, 3...". A terrific singer from the L.A. pop scene.

Just took the book out of the library. I see that Greene has some other books ( e.g. All Summer long, etc..). Wonder if they are about the Beach Boys. ?
