This new reissue of Yellow Balloon contains 16 tracks, including the complete stereo album \u0026amp; singles from ‘60s TV superstar Don Grady!A songwriting assignment from Dean Torrence led to a rich musical career for Los Angeles pop genius Gary Zekley. Zekley – a man whose body of work stands up to any of the precocious Brill Building bunch from five years earlier – originally penned the song “Yellow Balloon” for Jan and Dean, but also recorded the tune himself. When Zekley’s version went into the Top Thirty in April of 1967, he assembled a band, called the Yellow Balloon (natch), with the likes of lead singer Alex Valdez and the multi-talented drummer\/vocalist Don Grady, already a TV superstar as Robbie Macmurray’s oldest kid on My Three Sons. This reissue of Yellow Balloon contains 16 tracks, including the complete original stereo album.","brand":"Yellow Balloon, The","offers":[{"title":"- ROCK *NEW*","offer_id":54580964262225,"sku":"MEJUYO-DBMW-X1","price":25.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1030\/9297\/8001\/files\/rock-new_bfHmb.jpg?v=1786782279","url":"https:\/\/ilovevinylrecords.com\/products\/yellow-balloon-the-the-yellow-balloon-yellow-vinyl","provider":"I Love Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
