    These guys were recording around the same time as Creedence. Their rival tours of the west coast was the stuff of rock legend. Their break up in '74 was a true loss to the industry.

This band was super-hot in '70 & '71...I mean we all went APE over them...their singles drove us BANANAS...these chimps we not chumps...initially, their rival band was The Monkee's but later opened for Mandril. The band broke-up in the summer of '72 to peruse various musical and entertainment endeavors...Lancelot kept up with his acting and was later seen in the '80's in the movie Project X.
