After a brief stint studying music theory, on and off, at Vallejo Junior
College, Mr. Stone, by then a fledgling commodity in the flourishing Bay
Area music scene, was tapped by some enterprising disc jockeys to work
as a producer for their new label, Autumn Records. There, he helped
write Bobby Freeman’s “C’mon and Swim,” which became a Top 10 hit in
1964 and the catalyst of a dance craze.

While at Autumn he also produced the 2 big hits by the Beau Brummels.
