Gary Usher Month - Ridin' Trails
The Kickstands - Ridin' Trails
In 1964, Gary Usher was a hired hand on The Kickstands' motorcycle-themed Capitol LP Black Boots And Bikes. The record ended up featuring four tunes written by Usher and frequent co-hort Roger Christian, as well as another by Usher only. The album featured the vocal talents of Gary Usher, as well as a couple of the guys in the photo above - Dennis McCarthy and Dick Burns, who handles lead vocals on this track.

Hondells Pic Sleeve Comes To Life!
Here's a 1965 Hondells clip that serves as a companion piece to Johnny Bartlett's eloquent Gary Usher post from a bit earlier today. Check out how the pic sleeve in Johnny's post comes to life in a frenzy of lip-synching insanity! Scroll down a post or two to check out the sleeve in question.
