WON’T COME BACK FROM DEAD MAN’S CURVE

THE LEGEND OF DEAD MAN’S CURVE


It was 44 years ago today, April 12, 1966, that Jan Berry, the creative genius behind the singing duo- Jan & Dean- suffered his near-deadly auto-accident.

It would eerily portentously take place just a short distance from Dead Man’s Curve in Los Angeles,California, two years after Jan & Dean released the hit single of the same title.

FIRST LOOK AT THE FORTHCOMING T.A.M.I. SHOW DVD FEATURING JAMES BROWN, ROLLING STONES, LESLEY GORE, BEACH BOYS AND MORE

It's a little hard to fathom, the line-up of the legendary T.A.M.I. Show film that was recorded over two days at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium in 1964.

There's James Brown and the Flames (before they became "Famous"), Chuck Berry, the Rolling Stones, the Beach Boys, Marvin Gaye, the Miracles, Lesley Gore (!), the Supremes, Gerry and the Pacemakers, Jan & Dean and more.
