Topic: SURVIVING GROUPS

This is a weird question:
HOW MANY GROUPS, WHO STARTED IN THE SIXTIES, ARE STILL ALIVE & KICKING, EVEN PERFORMING.
ORIGINAL LINE UP?
- could have been Pink Floyd if Waters didn't leave the band.
THIS SUBJECT IS A BRAIN KILLER

Re: SURVIVING GROUPS

Guitardoc,
did you not already ask this before? or something along the same lines?

Only one from the 60's that I know of with the same line up is aerosmith

There might be afew others that split up and got back together?

Re: SURVIVING GROUPS

It can be upyerkilt, my king, that there was a similar question, about, if I am right, groups who had influence. But her it is because of some sixties groups, often perform, in what I like to call, a "senior circuit" to get some money, like the Troggs. By the way, one of the best and funniest things about the troggs is that their frontman REG PRESLEY, wrote in interviews that thanks to the "smash hit, love is all around, performed by Wet Wet Wet in the movie about weddings and funerals, he had more than enough money thanks too the royalties to spend the rest of his life as a rich man.
But now I wanted more to know if there are still groups started in the 6ties, having the complete original line-up. The WHO, only 2 left. DID YOU KNOW WHO WROTE THE SONG "WILD THING" by the Troggs? Ask it 1000 persons, I doubt if you will have a correct answer: mail be if you know it, and also if you don't know it. I give you the answer

Re: SURVIVING GROUPS
