Jan & Dean - Old Wax And New Waves

Review by Derik DeLong

Jan & Dean's album Old Wax And New Waves is a delightful mix of old-school rock 'n' roll and contemporary pop tunes. The album features a collection of both new songs and classic hits from the duo's extensive discography.

From the opening track "Surf City" to the closing number "Dead Man's Curve," Jan & Dean's signature harmonies and catchy melodies are on full display. The album's standout tracks include "Little Old Lady from Pasadena" and "Drag City," which showcase the duo's ability to capture the spirit of the early 1960s surf rock scene.

But Old Wax And New Waves also offers something fresh and unexpected. Tracks like "Walk Like A Man" and "California Dreamin'" feature updated arrangements and production that give the classic tunes a modern twist. The album's title track, "Old Wax And New Waves," is a particularly clever blend of old and new, featuring vintage samples and contemporary beats.

Summary by Derik DeLong

Jan & Dean's Old Wax And New Waves is a must-listen for fans of classic rock 'n' roll and pop music. The album is a testament to the enduring legacy of the duo's music and their ability to stay relevant and fresh after all these years.
