I did contact Dean by the surf city allstars website a few years ago, I was told dean has no plans of this at the moment,
Its a shame,as a box set is well overdue.

I’m not sure if you guys are into theatre but there’s an off broadway musical called Route 66. It includes 3 Jan Berry compositions. Little Old Lady. Dead Man’s Curve. And Move Out Little Mustang. Pretty cool. You can listen to samples at StageRights.com.

Presumably the tapes exist.

This is all part of my content that we still need a Jan and Dean box set.

The song set list for the Hullabaloo concert is in Mark A Moore’s book, The Jan&Dean Record, page 267. Would have loved to hear a live A Beginning To An End.

Yeah me too, that would be great

My wife and I went to see the Marvelous Wonderettes at the Alabama Shakespeare Festival theatre. Before the play, music from 1958 was playing and Jennie Lee by Jan and Arnie was blasting loudly. I said. Hey that’s Jan! My wife told me to pipe down lol

DON'T YOU JUST KNOW IT / Jan Berry's Original Music Scores Being Published
« Last post by Admin on May 18, 2022, 09:57:51 AM »
AUTHENTIC SHEET MUSIC — Fifty-six years after the car accident that changed his life forever, Jan Berry’s original music scores and charts from the 1960s still exist—the actual documents used by the Wrecking Crew to record the original songs. These fascinating manuscripts open an important window on Jan’s body of work for Jan & Dean and other artists.

In association with Jan’s estate, author Mark A. Moore has begun to transcribe and publish some of Jan’s best arrangements, to shed more light on him as a songwriter and arranger, and to invite further study of the music.

These transcribed scores will interest musicians, music educators, school ensembles, bands, and any musician/aficionado of the West Coast Sound and the Hollywood studio system of the 1960s.

First up is the classic “Dead Man’s Curve” . . . and more will soon follow:

I’ve seen the Surf City shortened clip awhile ago, as well as many other rock bands, I think on Facebook. It’s supposedly from the Red Skelton Show. According to the dates they give on the artists, the J&D Surf City clip is from 1965. That’s what I would have guessed also. Not sure why they picked a two year old song, but that’s fine. It’s great! Sure wish more appearances would show up. I’d really like to see their Lloyd Thaxton Shows which most (I think) are in color.
