The music they produced was Garage rock, a raw form of rock and roll that enjoyed its original period of wide success in the United States from 1963 to 1967. Garage bands that crept into the national charts included: The Kingsmen (Portland), Paul Revere and the Raiders (Portland) and The Gentrys (Memphis). "Garage rock" comes from the perception that many such performers were young and often rehearsed in a family garage. Bands were mostly made up of middle-class teenagers from the suburbs. Garage rock peaked both commercially and artistically in 1966 and generally disappearing entirely by 1970.

Chip, THANK YOU for this great site! So many memories. Playing music with guys from the Nashville rock/pop music scene of the 60/70s is a blast. Now I'm ready for some Harvey's apple pie.

Chip: As always, it was good to see you last night.It was interesting to see how you have used modern technology to capture 60's rock and roll and good wholesome fun. The Original Charades and Exotics are grateful to you for helping us keep our teenage dreams alive. Jim Ragland The Original Charades
