Originally aired March 31, 2008 - "Come To The Sunshine" episode #40 explores the world of A&M records in the 1960's. Founded by Herb Alpert & Jerry Moss, A&M was a stomping ground for a coterie of creative producers, arrangers, songwriters and performers. A&M nurtured so many fine talents that it would be impossible to capture them all in one show. This edition of "Come To The Sunshine" was culled from a survey of more than 300 of A&M's single releases to present you with a banner show of 50 fine specimens. Each and every single was painstakingly transferred from the original MONO vinyl pressings in order of actual release to illustrate the full impact and arc of theLa Brea sound.Come with us on a journey from single #770 to #1118 featuring singles by:We Five/Two People/The Sugar Beats/The Grads/The Magic Mushrooms/Tommy Boyce/Roger Nichols Trio/The Merry-Go-Round/The Parade/Claudine Longet/The Garden Club/The Wanted/Tommy Boyce & Bobby Hart/Eternity's Children/The Golden Bough/West C
