A
songwriting assignment from Dean Torrence led to a rich musical
career for Los Angeles pop genius Gary Zekley. Zekley originally
penned the song "Yellow Balloon" for Jan and Dean, but
also recorded the tune himself. When Zekley's version went Top 30
in April of 1967, he assembled the Yellow Balloon with the likes
of lead singer Alex Valdez and drummer/vocalist Don Grady, already
a TV superstar on My Three Sons.
Sundazed's Yellow Balloon disc contains 20 tracks, including
the complete stereo album, vintage single sides, a Zekley demo,
ultra-rare Don Grady singles, a 20 page booklet stuffed with striking
color photos, and a penetrating on-disc interview with the late
Gary Zekley! |
