ジャンとディーンがついぞ発表できなかった60年代屈指の幻のアルバムがライノ･ハンドメイドで登場！
人気絶頂の1966年、ジャン・アンド・ディーンのジャン・ベリーは自らのヒット曲「デッド・マンズ・カーヴ」に描かれた情景のごとく自動車事故を起こし再起不能といわれた。1967年つらいリハビリを
行うかたわらベリーの音楽に対する情熱は事故以前よりも増し積極的にスタジオに入り彼らなりのレイト・
シックスティーズＬＡ産サンシャイン・ポップを作り上げた。相棒のディーンも献身的にサポートした。
残念ながらさまざまな理由によりこの楽曲群のほとんどは日の目を見ることなく倉庫に封印された。
それから40年の歳月を経てリイシュー・プロデューサー、アンドリュー・サンドヴァルは当時ワーナー・
ブラザーズに提出されたテープを丁寧に聴き驚愕した。これは大変なアルバムになるはずだった、と。
1966年から1967年にかけてもてはやされた『ペット・サウンズ』、『サージェント・ペパーズ』といった
コンセプト・アルバムに対するジャンとディーンからの回答がそこにはあったのだ。
サンドヴァルはこのリリースに際し、彼らの卓越したコーラス・ワークとベリーの緻密なアレンジをより感じられる
ようオリジナル・モノ・ミックスに加え今回特別にステレオ・ミックスを施した。またサンドヴァル
は綿密なるレコーディング・ノートと解説をよせ、ブックレットには未発表の写真が多数掲載されている。
40年以上の眠りからさめてまさに新たなる息吹を与えられたジャンとディーンの「最新作」を是非堪能されたし。
