Bio
According to the All Music Guide (www.allmusic.com), we were one of the most popular groups in the Detroit, Michigan area from 1967 to 1971. We played the Grande Ballroom on many occasions, opening for The Byrds, Procol Harum, B.B. King, Albert King, Moby Grape and on occasion, we were the headliner. The first time we played the Grande Ballroom, we were mistaken for The Cream, as our lead guitar player, a born perfect pitch musician, had perfectly reproduced Eric Claptons' guitar, complete with wah wah, on Tales of Brave Ulysses.
