Re: [Harp-L] The Count Five- psychotic reaction (featuring michael peloquin)

Wikipedia says; 

The Count Five was a 1960s garage rock band from San Jose, California , best known for their Top 10 single " Psychotic Reaction ". 

The band was founded in 1964 by John "Mouse" Michalski (born 1948, Cleveland , Ohio ) (lead guitar) and Kenn Ellner (born 1948, Brooklyn , New York ) (harmonica, vocals), two high school friends who had previously played in several short-lived outfits. After going shortly under the name The Squires , and several line-up changes later, the Count Five were born. Roy Chaney (born 1948, Indianapolis , Indiana ) took over bass duties, John "Sean" Byrne (born John Sean Byrne, in 1947, in Dublin , Ireland , died 17 December 2008) played rhythm guitar and lead vocals, and Craig "Butch" Atkinson (born 1947, San Jose , California , died 1998) played drums. The Count Five gained distinction for their habit of wearing Count Dracula -style capes when playing live.

Great vintage video and usage of the harmonica as a quasi "wall of sound" 

also, the first video of our very own michael peloquin as a young man playing the mouth harp!! ):):):): 

(ps, gotta love the part where he makes the drummer really nervous!!)
