The Gatormen (Camelot)

The Gatormen were from Juneau, Alaska. They were very popular locally. The group traveled to Seattle, Washington and recorded a couple 45's for Camelot Records.."Namu the Killer Whale" was the most remembered song from Gatormen. The record featured today is the lesser known 45 from the group. Band member Bill Johnson shares a nice history of Gatormen that is worth your time to read. He also provides some cool photo's as well.
