Bob Durand

Bob Durand, though not really a person in the Beau Brummels, co-wrote several Beau Brummels music with this group’s primary songwriter and guitarist, Ron Elliott. These included some significant ones, such as for example their strike “Slightly” and many of the tunes on the 1967 recording Triangle. Elliott and Durand had been high school close friends, and even though Elliott often published alone (and occasionally with other companions, such as for example Beau Brummels vocalist Sal Valentino), Durand helped Elliott with lyrics around the songs which they worked well collectively. Two Elliott/Durand compositions that this Beau Brummels by no means released were released from the obscure SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA group the Styx around the 1967 solitary “Hey, I’m Shed”/”Puppetmaster.”
