Mark & Brian

The outrageous morning-show DJs at Los Angeles' KLOS-FM 95.5, Mark & Brian commemorated their tenth anniversary in 1997 by releasing Mark & Brian: You Had to Be There!, a double-disc set including live-in-the-studio tracks from a cast of artists including INXS, Spin Doctors, Mel Tormé Carl Perkins, Tom Jones and Average White Band as well as a full hour of vocal comedy, with guests Tom Cruise, Dick Van Dyke and Billy Bob Thornton. Three years later, the Christmas-oriented, similarly split Little Drummer Boys was released, featuring the likes of Chicago, Collective Soul, Eddie Money, and Mel Torme. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
