Did you mean, Billy J. Kramer and the Dakotas?
A lesser known band, but had a few good songs...Bad to Me, was a favorite. They were managed by Brian Epstein of Beatles fame. Came in with the British Invasion. Crooner is perfect description.
DH and I saw him a few years back singing with a lineup of artists from that time, including Peter Asher of Petter and Gordon. He still had a fab voice.
Yes, that's who I meant. I'd never heard of them or seen them before. I've heard of Peter and Gordon. They were kinda folkie weren't they? From England? I know Paul McCartney used to date Jane Asher, Peter's sister. I think they were a well-to-do family.
Jan and Dean were the two hosts of the show. I guess they were the true originals of the "beach sound".
Also I just want to add, the Led Zepp film isn't on until tomorrow night (Sunday), but tongith is The Who and some early punk rock films. A little bit different than what we saw last night. I watched the movie on Elvis today On Demand - this movie was done in 1970 and it was also very well worthing watching. Elvis was a little before my time, but he's very likeable and a very good musician. He had a GREAT band backing him up. And fabulous backup singers.

The Beach Boys were local boys from the neighboring town of Hawthorne, CA & played one of our Jr. High School dances, just as they were starting to come to fame. I think Dennis Wilson, the drummer, was the only one in the group who actually surfed.
