Never heard this band before, but I think they're my new favorite 60s band.

I'm very familiar with that band and that particular song. Used to listen to it often on the radio back then. Yeah, they've got a good sound.

That also wrote Mony Mony and Crimson and Clover. Thats a lot of hits attributed to other artists in the mind of the average listener. I always thought Mony Mony was a Billy Idol original.

The 60s is on the bubble for me. Its the oldest decade where I kinda here songs I like. The 50s is a no go for me.

Yeah, it was a great decade, where music sounded like music.

Deep Purple - Hush

Sounds like it was made in the 70s.

I saw them in concert, best one I ever attended. It was a triple-header with The Buddy Miles Band (formerly the drummer for Jimi Hendrix) Uriah Heep then Deep Purple. It was accompanied by a great light show. Fantastic evening! And this was in the early 70s.
