The Four Preps. 26 miles and Big Man

[@sooz9433]

This made me cry...🥲 Life was so beautiful and these men made it even better. What great memories, thank you. 🎼🖤

[@ShirleySkinner-dl8ij]

Never get tired of these guys. Music is wonderful.

Walked into the Catalina airport after a along hike and this song was playing over the sound system, it was surreal experience

[@billarroo1]

I went to Catalina Island, I missed the boat back, I was stuck there, lucky I had money or I'd been sleeping on the beach all night !!!😃😃😃 Great place, Great Song,

[@sherryjanecooke9347]

So thrilled to see them!!!! My heart is with you!!!!

[@kimberlyferguson7264]

I have loved this song for years, years and years. I try to visit Catalina at least once a year. Wish the Preps would come all the way to Cheyenne, WY.

I have lived in Southern California foe 54 years and been to Catalina Island only once...back in 1971. I wished I had gone more times. It was beautiful as I remember.

You must be a Big Man! How do you feel about that one? * I like it almost as much as 26 Miles. Two of the best, classic and fun '50s songs you will hear! "26 Miles" hit #2, and "Big Man" hit #3, both in the great year, 1958, which featured some of the funniest, most irrelevant, and novelty-genre songs in the history of pop music! * original on the radio here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sInHaZZnd7GjiLM

CC: Gals swooned got Dave as recently as the early 2000s. As you probably already know, he passed in 2015.

What is Jim Yester from "The Association" doing in the Four Preps?? LOL

[@johnpastirchak1053]

Yester replaced Bob Page, who quit the band in the late '60s. Another eye popper: on the far right is the late David Summerville who was also the lead vocalist on "Little Darling" by the Diamonds.

Did you think performing is just what you see on stage?

They have all had veneers put on their teeth. Why do men do this? It looks so weird an unattractive.

[@-danR]

Well, they could be simply dentures, or some may just have their original good teeth. They certainly kept their good voices.

[@paratrooper7340]

You can't sing a note but you just had to sing along and nearly ruin the song for the rest of us.

[@-danR]

Naw, it wasn't bad, and not too loud; and could've been someone right beside, who knows?

[@kixigvak]

Did these guys ever have to get real jobs?
