PAPA DOO RUN RUN is a group of competent musicians who have been playing Surf and instrumental music since 1965. They are known for their excellent cover versions and have been supporting various Beach Boys on their solo excursions. In 1977 the band was chosen to supply the music to the Jan & Dean documentary “Dead Man’s Curve”. Dean Torrence was featured as vocalist as well. The soundtrack was never released. Later the - after his car accident - handicapped Jan Berry added some vocals to the songs, and the music was finally pressed in a very limited quantity for some fans. The label said ‘promotional copy - not for sale’. To this day this longplayer is a must for all Jan & Dean fans, as it also marked the reunion of the once famous Surf duo.
You might also be interested in Mark A. Moore’s Book “Dead Man’s Curve – The Rock ‘n’ Roll life of Jan Berry” (510 pages, McFarland & Company, Jefferson 2021, ISBN 978-1-4766-7210-6). It’s expensive to buy, though.
