Info

  • Played with Jerry Mather in 1966.
  • There is conflicting information about this band online. People claim they were only four members, but the band picture printed in the 1966 MA BotB program clearly shows a five-piece.
  • TBM lists them as a NY group, which is obviously not true.
  • The topside of their record was a cover of a song released by Jose Feliciano the prior year.
