The music of the 1950s and 1960s lives again on MusicMaster Online Worldwide! Hear the big hits, little hits, songs that should have been hits, songs that helped create rock and roll, and lots of other surprises.
Here's some additional information from a former member of the band:
ReplyDeleteCool blog! The entry on Prince of Dreams/Segarini is mostly right. Some more background if you're interested: there was a guy who was a big star in South Lake Tahoe, Jim Burgett. He held these dances at the American Legion Hall there which were the big thing in Tahoe in 1966-1967. The Family Tree played there fairly frequently, in fact I met them there in the summer of 1966. Bob was friends with Burgett, and the band recorded Prince of Dreams at Burgett's home studio in early 1967. This was a few months before I joined the band, so was not privy to the recording equipment, but I imagine it would have been fairly crude.
wow that sounds a bit like neil diamond-nice song
