Videos of Summer: 26 Miles (1958)

The Four Preps' 1958 hit, "26 Miles", is a robust summer song that will get a ton of play until the end of the season, and maybe beyond.

The following video has a mix of vintage footage and a compilation of memorabilia.

We lost co-author Glen Larson a while back. After the band split, Larson became a successful television producer, at first at Universal, then at 20th Century Fox, in the 70's & 80's, with a resume that includes Battlestar Galactica (1978), Quincy, Switch, & The Hardy Boys-Nancy Drew Mysteries. Larson also co-wrote the themes for each show, usually with Stu Phillips.
