The Peels were a studio group assembled by producer Tash Howard, consisting of Gail Allan (22), Bill Spilka (25) and Harvey Davis (23) and Harold Swart (28) (pictured on right).
It was Tash Howard's intention to have the band perform a (potential hit) song which he and Murray Kenton had written, with him/his production company (Howard-Smith Productions) producing.
The song ended up being the cult 1966 hit song '[r=3816857]'.
A couple of follow up singles ([r=4200891] and [r=4198712]) were quickly released, as was a "cash-in" Lp (also named [r=4201254]), but the single's success was not to be repeated, and soon after the LP's release, The Peels disappeared.
