Barefoot Adventure: The 4 Star Sessions 1962-66 *
Gary Usher
LP
Gary Usher is, pure and simple, one of THE great unsung heroes of American rock 'n' roll, largely responsible, along with Brian Wilson and Jan Berry, for inventing surf and hot rod music. Now, Sundazed has assembled the ultimate Usher treasure trove, 36 tracks that he recorded for the 4 Star label in the early '60s that show him defining and refining the genre. And, best of all-21 are unreleased! Exclusive interviews with Usher and an essay by biographer Stephen McParland highlight the thick, photo-packed booklet. From My Little Surfin' Woodie to '54 Corvette (both unreleased tunes), a perfect ride down the "pipeline" of American pop!
