Jan & Dean: Official Message Board for Jan Berry

Jans mono mixes are the best. Would love all those in a box set.

Maybe it's too late for a physical boxset, but look at The Beach Boys copyright releases! Every year now, we get new albums filled with unreleased material, live material, remixes, etc... And in the case of the 1968 sets, they are only available digitally.

I'd love to see a proper digital release to commemorate J&D legacy.

Here's my wish ....

1 All of the studio albums from Dore to Popsicle with original mono mixes and 2019 stereo mixes.
2 All of the material from after the accident and onwards... both solo and J&D... (Dean's re-recordings both from '77 and the 80's, Port To Paradise, Second Wave)
3 Studio outakes, sessions, unreleased material, backing tracks, a capellas, etc... (sort of like how we got those backing tracks on the 1996 greatest hits CD)
4 Live material (preferably without much studio enhancement)

If a set like this was released, I would probably feel like I died and went to heaven!!!

i read that jan was working on light my fire. I d love to hear a version that jan was working on as another track.After a great vol 1, am I the only one here who wants a vol 2

I’m still waiting for my wish list. Do the Hullabaloo Show tapes still exists? According to Mark’s book, ten live songs were left in the can still waiting for all of us to hear. How about all the extra footage from the “On the Run” concert. Is that also sitting around in a can somewhere? What a treat that would be for all of us to listen and view this missing material fifty years later!

Same here. Mark is doing a brilliant job in curating Jan's legacy as writer, producer, arranger and singer - as well as the reputation and importance of Jan and Dean. The Jan and Dean Record is a brilliant and serious reference book. I too am looking forward to Jan's biography in 2019.
Happy Christmas and a peaceful New Year from the UK.
