After signing to Chess Records, a then exclusively black Rhythm and Blues label responsible for likes of Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf, they quickly cut their self-titled and overlooked classic album. The album, which is rumored to have locally outsold the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper in 1967, brought acclaim, groupies and gigs. But despite local success, the band quickly dissolved, it's members scattering across the nation. Dean Nimmer went on to become an esteemed artist and professor.

Untitled No. 63 Abstract Composition Mixed Media
By Michael David
Located in Lake Worth Beach, FL
