Our Take
Our Take
Ah, the Four Preps Collection 1956-62. This album is a delightful blast from the past, taking us back to a time when poodle skirts and soda shops ruled the day. The Four Preps were the epitome of cool in the late '50s and early '60s, and this collection perfectly captures their fun, quirky sound.
From the toe-tapping "26 Miles (Santa Catalina)" to the swoon-worthy "Big Man," this album is a perfect time capsule of a bygone era. The harmonies are tight, the production is top-notch, and the nostalgia is off the charts.
But don't let the throwback vibes fool you - the Four Preps were ahead of their time in many ways. They blended doo-wop with pop sensibilities, creating a sound that was uniquely their own. Tracks like "Got a Girl" and "Dreamy Eyes" showcase their knack for catchy melodies and clever lyrics.
Overall, the Four Preps Collection 1956-62 is a must-listen for any fan of vintage pop music. It's a joyful, infectious romp through a simpler time, and a reminder of the enduring power of great harmonies and catchy hooks. So grab a root beer float, put on your saddle shoes, and enjoy this musical trip down memory lane.

About the artist
The Four Preps
FOUR PREPS: The Fab Four Before The Fab Four Hailing from Los Angeles in the late 1950s, the Four Preps were not your average boy band. With their infectious harmonies and catchy melodies, they quickly rose to fame and became a household name in the world of doo-wop and rock and roll. Led by the charming Bruce Belland, the group's smooth vocals and playful lyrics captivated audiences across the country. Songs like "26 Miles (Santa Catalina)" and "Big Man" became instant classics, showcasing the Preps' ability to blend harmonies with a touch of whimsy. But don't let their clean-cut image fool you - the Four Preps were a bunch of wild and crazy guys. Rumour has it that they once drove a convertible through the lobby of a hotel just for kicks, leaving a trail of chaos in their wake. And let's not forget their infamous feud with rival group The Four Freshmen, which culminated in a showdown at the Hollywood Bowl that had fans buzzing for weeks. Despite their antics, the Four Preps were true trailblazers in the world of pop music. They paved the way for future boy bands like The Beach Boys and The Beatles, proving that you didn't have to be a bad boy to rock the charts. So if you're looking for a blast from the past with a twist of mischief, look no further than the Four Preps. With their toe-tapping tunes and larger-than-life personalities, these boys are sure to keep you singing and smiling for years to come.
