In 1966, a groupl of studio musicians hit it big with a novelty song based on an Alka-Seltzer ad. Unwilling to go on the road to promote it, the label recruited other musicians to become The T-Bones and claim the song as theirs. Among these musicians were Dan Hamilton, Joe Frank Carollo, and Tom Reynolds. After the song's popularity waned, the boys formed a new group which they aptly called Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds. Their record, Don't Pull Your Love became a #4 hit. Other records followed, but with far less success, and Tom Reynolds left the group, being replaced by Alan Dennison. The band found themselves withhout a label. Shortly, they presented a song to Playboy Records and were signed to a contract, while keeping their original group name. Their first Playboy offering, Fallin' In Love, soared up the charts, becoming a #1 hit and earned them another gold record. Other hits followed. This is the intriguing story of how one of the great soft rock bands of the 70's, Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds came to be. If you like great music, you won't want to miss this book.
