NOTES: "Jan Berry, the lead vocalist, composer
and producer of famed surf/hot rod duo Jan & Dean had crashed his
Corvette on the Sunset Strip late at night on April 19, 1966, almost
killing himself. Jan remained in a coma for some time afterwards, and
his rehab would take years rather than months. Dean Torrence, singer of the duo’s
ozone-scraping high parts, its specialist in vocal-stacking and its idea
man when it came to personal presentation, decided to carry on
single-handed while his partner was incapacitated. With the assistance
of a few celebrated friends and session men who were regulars in Phil
Spector’s Wrecking Crew—bassist Joe Osborn, pianist Larry Knechtel,
guitarist James Burton and drummer Mickey Jones—Dean began recording
tracks whenever he could in Osborn’s North Hollywood garage for what
would become the new Jan & Dean album, Save for a Rainy Day. The album was a spectacular concept,
with its rain-related songs, both new and old, all linked together with
the sound of a summer thunderstorm. Dean issued the LP in very limited
quantities on his own J&D label and the album became the ultimate
rarity in the Jan & Dean catalog. Now Save for a Rainy Day appears on Sundazed on limited edition 180-gram vinyl, mastered from the pristine mono reels, in all its original glory!" - sundazed
