The band was formed at the university of South Carolina. July 22 & 23, 1969. Christopher recorded "What'cha Gonna Do?" at Arthur Smith ("Guitar Boogie" and "Dueling Banjos") Studios in Charlotte, NC, a state of the art 8-track studio. It was the best money could buy in the South at the time, ($62 per hour). The album was privately pressed as a demo to submit to Major labels for a deal. August 1969. Rhythm guitarist Steve Nagle went to the Woodstock Festival and was never the same. Toby and Gary went to New York City to try to get the band the major label deal. The demo LP received some radio play on some stations in the South. October 1969. Christopher was contacted by a management firm from Texas who worked with national acts, and were offered a substantial management deal, a national tour as an opener for the Steve Miller Band, and a major label LP release. Big decisions had to be made. They figured they would be travelling 300 days a year, and not get rich after all the fees were taken out. Also a new lead singer was brought in for a couple of gigs, and Steve began to question his role in the group, opening the door to further defections, critically Frank's. Their legacy can be heard here...enjoy
