Dredd Foole
Dan Ireton born Camden, MA 1950. Became interested in blues, raga and folk through AM radio in the Winter of 1960. Played in various beat, freakbeat and pre-psych R&B combos around Asbury Park and also in the grange halls. His first major booking was at the Moorestown Grange with The Colonials. Later went on to the popular and explosive units The Notions (1963) and The Nobles (1964) before leading the radical controversial combo Love's Signs Denounced, his "big one" in the psychedelic beat idiom until The Din over 20 years later.

Kissing The Contemporary Bliss
For over 30 years troubadour walier DAN IRETON has called upon the spirit of 78 shellac blues n' psychedelic Stooges n' Velvets to fuel his guttural, pure soul ethos of the song. Hints at the classic forms of Dylan's Blood On The Tracks, Buckley's St…
