Episode Notes

Bruce Belland was a founding member of The Four Preps, America’s first Boy Band. They hit the top of the charts in the early ‘60s with “26 Miles” and “Big Man”. Bruce went on to have an illustrious career in show business appearing for for seasons on Ozzie & Harriet and meeting and befriending dozens of stars including Ricky and David Nelson, Nancy Sinatra, Robert Redford and Gene Kelly. Bruce previously was a guest on the podcast and I asked him back to discuss his new book, “Icons, Idols and Idiots of Hollywood - My Adventures in America’s First Boy Band.”

My featured song is “Aches and Pains” from Robert’s album Summer Of Love (2020). Spotify link.
