The X L's (Sound)

There was several groups in the 1960's that called them self the X L's. The group featured today was from Michigan. It was released in 1965. I really enjoy the moody teen ballad  "But it's true". The flip side "Pin Curlers" is a novelty song with a catchy frat/rockabilly sounding beat.
