Who Were the Pyramids Back in 1964?-- Part 2
From Wikipedia. Continued from Feb. 22nd. //// Surf band from Long Beach, California, in 1961 who only had one song rank in the Billboard Top 100, "Penetration." It was the last surfing instrumental to rank in the Top Twenty in July 1964. //// Appeared in the movie "Bikini Beach" wearing Beatle wigs (not according to the video of them from the movie on You Tube where they were bald). The Modest Conspiring site calls them the First Punk Band playing Surf Rock. //// On You Tube, their "Bikini Drag" song opens with what at first looks like a group of balloons, but when the camera moves back, we see that these are their shaved heads. They put on quite an energetic show and one even did a back flip. //// More to Come. --RoadDog
