    Artist History
    Starting in the late 70's Doug was a member of two Seminal Punk outfits from New York with Alan Milman who would go on with Doug to Form Buddy Love in the Early 80's. Rich Starr (here on drums) was also a member of Buddy Love. At the same time, in the same town, Gary Feldman was leading his own Power Pop Anthemic Group, Radio City. Later on he formed the Breakaways, continuing his love for Rockin' Power Pop. For the past three years Gary, Doug & Rich have been making their own kind of Rockin' Power Pop in their SECRET (shhh) studio somewhere in a basement on Long Island.In a new development, RC Flyers (formerly known as Radio Flyers) is being enjoined by the Radio Flyer Corp (which owns the name) to stop using the name Radio Flyers so our new name is RC Flyers (duh)

    Press Reviews
    Bruce Brodeen of the Not Lame Recording Company says "This charming home-made project is a lo-fi pop treat filled with pretty melodies and a slightly haunting feel to it and the project of Buddy Love guys Gary Feldman and Doug Khazzam, who churn out some fine songs that sound at times Byrdsy, other times Beatlesy, always keeping their feet in the '90s but giving nods to their '60s influences time and time again. The harmonies are perfect, the songs are catchy and the atmosphere is more 'laid-back pop' than 'power pop' (although that probably changes when they play live). Over the course of this nine-tracker, you'll be tappin' your toes and singing along in no time. Heck, with song titles like "Strawberry Says" and "Pamela Please", how can you go wrong?"
