My Mom had this in her record collection as a girl. She passed it on to me in my late teens or early twenties. I’m 53 now and psyched to have found this again!
This is not the Ron Weiser from Rollin' Rock. Lead guitar on both sides is Jim Weiser, rhythm guitar is his brother Ron Weiser, both from Glendora, Calif. The name "Arjay Records" is their initials: R J). Jim is the vocal on The L.A. Teens "Saturday's Child" produced by Gary Usher on Decca, and the lead guitar on another rare pre-surf guitar instro "The Happy Toad" on Crest Records (another Dale Smallin production).
I could say a lot of good things about Johnny Fortune. I met him in 1975. He was a music teacher at Platt music in Ontario on fourth Street. Every now and then and very often I think of him a lot. I don’t think Johnny was no more than 60 years old when he passed away from diabetes. His younger brother Joey passed away at 49. I had a great time with his band and with his friends. He was a great guitar teacher, and a very kind and generous person. I can’t say anything bad about Johnny fortune he was always my friend my best friend I guess you could say I knew Johnny close to 30 years. He was one hell of a cool guy. May he rest in peace I am may God have mercy on his soul.😪😪 sometimes it makes me sad, but I know he’s at peace with himself. I hope his son is living and doing well. Little Johnny was always a cool kid when Johnny was working, I used to pick him up from school and take him to McDonald’s and when Johnny his dad got done, he would meet us at McDonald’s, those were some good old days. I must say all the stuff they put on RU-vid about him I save it in remembrance of my best friend👍🏼👍🏼😁😎🎸 I’m 70 years old and I still play guitar and love it very much and think of Johnny fortune and all the things I learned from him. This is a long comment should cut it short now, but I sure miss him.😪😪 he was like my brother👍🏼
I've liked these guys and Sick Kidz since I found AntiDis etc and the 45 w/ Needle Head respectively, long ago . Great bands , I used to see Ben play here in LA at this dive bar in Culver City some yrs ago. A very Talented bunch .. Palmyra is sooo RockNRoll cool...
Love Rafe on Andy. Hoped to find more Jack Prince anywhere!!! Glad I found this. Can’t beat his voice esp on the deeper ones. Very appreciative of this.
I remember Jerry comin to our house in 1960 lookin for my brother Mike to play bass in group here in Hamilton Ont Canada ….Mike was in a group Buster And The Midnite Rockers and Also Dallas Harms short stint
