"Over the years, we have had so much fun, fun, fun and so many memorable interactions. Whether it was onstage in Hawaii at the KPOI Million Dollar Party in July 1964, or on the T.A.M.I. Show in October 1964 that Jan & Dean hosted, we [The Beach Boys] enjoyed a healthy rivalry as well as friendship...I'm certain you, the reader, will have a great time reading this story that Dean shares with us of his life experience, his Surf City Saga."--From the foreword by Mike Love , The Beach Boys "Some of the happiest times of my life have been in the company of Dean Torrence, and if there was one thing better than being onstage with him all those summer nights, it was getting to hear him tell his wonderful stories in the dressing rooms, all-night diners and back-road taverns after the shows. Now you're lucky enough to hear those stories, in a beautiful voice you've loved for years."-- Bob Greene , author of When We Get to Surf City: A Journey Through America in Pursuit of Rock and Roll, Friendship, and Dreams "Dean Torrence was there for the birth of Surf Music and played a massive role in both performing and defining it. If there was such a thing as Surf Music royalty, then Dean Torrence is it. And, of course, whenever I have the opportunity to play that cool music with Dean, I always keep some extra reverb on hand just for him...!"-- Jeff "Skunk" Baxter , Doobie Brothers "...and we had a good time doing it...didn't we..."-- Lou Adler , Ode Records
