Veronica Raleigh - The Count Five

I chose the band The Count Five. They were an American garage rock band that formed in San Jose California (1964) They got rejected from many record companies until they came out with their most popular single, "Psychotic Reaction," which then Los Angeles based double shot records signed them. Psychotic Reaction was peaking at number 5 in the US charts in 1966. Their success was very limited and by 1969 they had broken up as a band.

    From the readings, it seems like a lot of bands were rejected by a lot of recording companies at first and then when they finally received a record deal they would do really well! It is also interesting how bands come and go and how they can break up and add people. For my band The Standells, the band members were always changing!
