This Day in Rock History - Apr. 12th

1966: In one of the creepiest coincidences in rock, Jan Berry of Jan & Dean crashes his Corvette near a stretch of L.A. road known as “Deadman’s Curve,” also immortalized in song by the duo just one year before.

Berry will require 4 years of therapy before he learns how to talk again and nearly a decade of therapy before he can perform again.
