The JourneymenThe formation of The Journeymen, with Scott McKenzie, John Phillips and Dick Weissman, was a direct outgrowth of the late 1950s and 60s folk boom. The Journeymen were considered one of the most promising of the many groups that were formed during that period, and the trio performed with considerable vocal and instrumental skill. John Phillips, acknowledged leader of the group, composed material that was recorded by them. Scott McKenzie, excelled as lead tenor and soloist. Dick Weissman's educational background at the Philadelphia Conservatory of Music, Goddard College in Vermont and Columbia University, provided a strong foundation for his talents as banjoist and guitarist. |
