About the artist
Classics IV formed in 1965 in Jacksonville, Florida, founded by Dennis Yost, J. R. Cobb, Wally Eaton, and Joe Wilson. The group’s evolution continued in later lineups under The Classics IV featuring Dennis Yost, maintaining the signature sound that fans associate with late-60s pop-rock.
