  • Description

    Jan & Dean - aka Jan Berry and Dean Torrence - would famously become mainstays of the 1960s U.S. West Coast Surfing/Dragster music scene, alongside The Beach Boys. But long before then, they'd been cutting Doo Wop hits since 1958, their first three 45rpm releases credited to Jan & Arnie (i.e. Berry and Arnie Ginsberg), while Torrence was away in the U.S. Army.

    As Jan & Arnie they registered with the million-selling 'Jennie Lee' and 'Gas Money', and as Jan & Dean with sides like 'Baby Talk', 'There's A Girl', 'Clementine', 'We Go Together', 'Gee', 'Heart And Soul', 'Wanted, One Girl', 'A Sunday Kind Of Love', 'Tennessee', 'Linda', etc.

    This compilation presents the very best of Jan & Arnie/Jan & Dean between 1958-62, recorded across five different record labels, and features a dozen U.S. chart entries, the first time that this body of work has been comprehensively compiled.

    Included are a couple of collectors' rarities which are notoriously difficult to find elsewhere on CD.
