Digitally remastered two-fer for the Surf Rock/Pop outfit. The band was the vehicle for Gary Usher, a producer, musician and songwriter, who found fame and his niche during the early 1960s in California. Usher was the first outsider to collaborate with The Beach Boys' Brian Wilson, co-writing 10 songs with him, including 'In My Room' and '409'. He also produced The Byrds and Sons Of Adam.  Gary initiated The Hondells project, produced the hit singles and the groups two long players and created the sound so synonymous with the name The Hondells. Go Little Honda produced the band's biggest hit, 'Little Honda' a Beach Boys song, penned by Brian Wilson and Mike Love for their album All Summer Long, released in '64. The Beach Boys hadn't put out their original as a single and noticing how well the cover was doing quickly released it but ironically, it was only a minor hit for the surf legends. The Hondells self-titled follow up (again released in 1964) produced a hit with their version of  The Lovin' Spoonful's 'A Younger Girl', which charted at #52 in the States.
