The origins of "The Little Old Lady (from Pasadena)" stem from a hugely popular ad campaign that the Dodge automobile maker debuted in early 1964. Starring actress Kathryn Minner, the commercials showed the white haired elderly lady speeding down the street (and sometimes a drag strip) driving a modified Dodge. She would stop, look out the window and say "Put a Dodge in your garage, Hon-ey!". The song soon followed and she enjoyed great popularity until she died a few years later.

And on the same 'Action' show the duo also performed "Sidewalk Surfin'"; eight months earlier on November 29th, 1964 it reached #25 {for 2 weeks} on the Top 100...

Dean had a butt kickin falsetto which you all hear here. They had some great tunes, and their work served as a great compliment to what Brian and the Beach Boys were doing. (Dean is also a pretty great artist, and came up with the Beach Boys logo, which they still use to this day.)(Dean also created a number of great album covers for different artists, as well )

From the T.A.M.I. Show, featuring most of Rock's top names of the time, and providing a record of how Southern California's youth looked in 1964. One of my favorite songs of all-time; I must have driven my parents half-crazy playing it so much on the hi-fi. I was such a fan of Jan and Dean, that I had my mother buy me a striped shirt like the ones they're wearing here. I was at Jan and Dean's "second" comeback concert (which really was their first true comeback--no lip-synching) at the Starwood on Santa Monica Blvd. around 1977. They came down a short stairwell, Jan using a cane. They were well-received, and Jan sang pretty darn well, considering how much damage his brain incurred in his 1966 car accident. Towards the close of Deadman's Curve, the music stopped, and Jan said, "I came back from Deadman's Curve," with the crowd going crazy. I had the chance to later see them in (appropriately) Pasadena for New Year's Eve and in my home town of Glendale at its yearly car show (as well as the honor to be part of their security team at another Glendale car show, which allowed me see them backstage).

I know I had a back n forth with someone here about the Beach Boys n Jan n Dean. Fact is, Jan Berry was a bit of a mentor to Brian in the early days. Dean Torrance has his place in R n R history with his art and that ass kickin falsetto that is ALSO featured on Barbara Ann from the Boys. I say that if there is enough love, which there is, put Jan n Dean in the Hall. its too exclusive as it is.

I think it's safe to say Jan Berry and Brian Wilson taught each other.

In 1963 when Jan Berry began collaborating in his songwriting with Brian Wilson, Jan & Dean took off to superstardom with numerous chard busting singles. Jan's falsetto and studio wizardry along with the excellent material made for great listening in the mid 60's. The best way to listen is by using the original mono releases. The complexity of Jan's production work is truly outstanding.

I saw them in an oldies concert in Augusta Ga. They invited the audience up on the stage to sing back up of "Surfin' Safari". Good times!

To allow these boys to disappear from music history would be really devastating. Even my grand kids are listening to them.

What a tragedy with Jan, imagine what great music they would have made if not for the accident. But what they did make lives forever. By the way, if you have not seen this show, the TNT show, get it, it is absolutely fantastic with all the great stars from this era.

Jan & Dean were around for two years before the Beach Boys; they weren't knock offs in any way. By the time they first met Brian Wilson in 1962, Jan Berry already had two top-10 singles under his belt with two different partners, plus another one in the top-30. And he recorded both of those top-10 songs in his own garage--how many artists have done that? Brian and Jan wrote Surf City together. Berry was also producing his own records before Brian was.

Brian Wilson played what he had written of Surf City thinking he'd never finish it so they added a bit more to finish the song off.It's 90pc a Beach boys song they took.

As far as the basic structure of the song, yes, that’s Brian. But Jan wrote the musical arrangement and produced the sessions for Surf City. I’d say that makes it closer to 50-50.

Blimey , I love the harmony sound these two fellas made. Pre Beach Boys and even with that little hipster dance that Mike Love so o bviously copied. Still love the Beach Boys as well, but credit where it is due, Jan and Dean...yes ....
@jamesgeiger47956 жыл бұрын
Actually Brian Wilson co wrote Surf City along with Jan Berry. The B/B and J&D collaborated a time or two. Dean sang on Barbara Ann. As far as this performance, somebody was backing them up on the harmony. There is more than 2 voices going on in this video. It wouldn't surprise me if it was the B/Bs since they were at the same concert.
