Barefoot Adventure: 4 Star Sessions 1962-66

Two CD set. The 4 Star Sessions 1962-1966 features Gary Usher, the Four Speeds, the Sunsets, the Competitors and the Honeys. This collection explores Gary Usher's tenure as co-architect of the happiest pop music ever written, a guileless celebration of sun, surf and cars that's become an enduring symbol of the American dream. This collection is a remarkable glimpse of the process, of a struggling songwriter angling for a break, sometimes tap dancing in tangents, oblivious to the bulls eye he was hitting on the way to forging an important new sound. 36 terrific tracks, including exclusive Sundazed interviews with Usher himself, with an illuminating essay and track commentary by author and Usher-biographer Stephen McParland.
