Cioffi - The Human Beinz (1960's Garage Rock)

The Human Beinz is a band formed in 1964, originally named the Premiers. This band from Struthers Ohio changed their name to the Human Beingz because they thought it would be more fitting for the 60's. The group started out just recording covers of other bands songs and then started composing their own. When they signed with their record label Capital Records the label spelt their band name wrong leaving out the "g" in Beingz now making them the Human Beinz. They were told by the record company that it would be changed for their next album but some of their songs became popular and they could not change their name now. The Human Beinz most famous song is "nobody but me". The next single the Human Beinz put out "Turn On Your Love Light"flopped in America but was at the top of the charts in Japan. The band broke up in 1969 but due to prior contracts they had to finish the tour they were on. One of their songs "Dance On Through" is able to be heard in the television show the Addams Family.
