""Talk Talk". The Music Machine on Dick Clark's WHERE THE ACTION IS TV show. "The Music Machine (1965–1969) was an American garage rock band, headed by singer-songwriter Sean Bonniwell and based in Los Angeles. Their sound was defined by fuzzy guitars and a Farfisa organ."

Papa Oom Mow Mow--The Rivingtons (1962)

[Fiji Hill]

An earlier incarnation of the Rivingtons:

Roll On--The Lamplighters (an answer to The Wallflower by Etta James & the Peaches; in turn, an answer to Work With Me, Annie by the Midnighters)

Everyone wears glove on one hand.

My brother and I noticed that when they were on TV at the height of their popularity.

Incidentally, the pendant worn by the lead singer looks like a Jerusalem cross--a Crusader symbol.

(even the Turtles have their Doors connection).

Ah, The Turtles.

Went to HS with them. The band was known as the "Crossfires" in those days. Mark Volman and Howard Kaplan (the front guys) were fat even back then. Chuck Portman was the drummer, I think. Portman was a helluva swimmer as I remember. All nice Jewish boys.

IIRC, Mark and Howard morphed into "Flo and Eddie" some time later, still fat.

We Gentiles went to Viet Nam.

"What ever became of Paul Revere and the Raiders?

They were probably stranded by the Great Airplane Strike of 1966--as was I.

Mark and Howard morphed into "Flo and Eddie" some time later, still fat.

I liked to listen to Flo and Eddie on FM radio back in the Ford/Carter era.

The same era:

Jimmi Hendrix made the song 'Hey Joe' famous...here are some people who did it before him:

The Leaves

Love

The Soulbenders

Cher

[dsutah]

The Standells (American), the Yardbirds (British), and I believe The Doors (American) also had a version of it!

{LAMPLIGHTERS -ROLL ON}...thanks

[virgil283]

[ The Leaves- Hey Joe ]

...Thanks,..... I thought Lightnin Hopkins : 'Penetentiary Blues", was the base for 'Hey Joe" but Wiki says it wasn't made until the 60s by Billy Roberts...... you never know do you?

Come On In is the flip side of their “hit” Talk Talk.

[a fool in paradise]

Hey Joe, rock and roll (fast version) by the Surfaris (yes the Wipe Out guys) from 1966 (on Decca).

“Mark and Howard morphed into “Flo and Eddie” some time later, still fat”

and toured with Frank Zappa on “Just Another Band From LA”—best concert I ever been to.
