Product Description

Along Comes the Association is the story of how Russ Giguere and his fellow band members in the legendary and influential pop group The Association came together to create unparalleled music, unique to the time and place, and never again to be repeated. Yes, there were drugs, and there were women, such as the lovely Linda Ronstadt and Helen Mirren, but it was the Sixties, after all. In listening to Along Comes the Association, you are transported back in time to post–1963 America. Go on, try to resist the urge to roll one while floating on the musical cloud of melodic rock that Russ Giguere and his band of melodic troubadours popularized and that we still cherish to this day . . .

Reviews/Praise

“Russ and the Association were multitalented, intelligent men who played beautiful, melodic music, harmonized like angels, dressed like Cary Grant and partied harder than the Rolling Stones!” ―Danny Hutton, Three Dog Night

“Russ was always the front man for the group, always the sex symbol of The Association!” ―Joe Butler, The Lovin’ Spoonful
