I always enjoyed the Florida Rocks Again podcast hosted by Mal Thursday. Good stuff! The Pebbles from St. Petersburg was one of the 45's featured on the show. It was released in 1965. The Group consisted of Joe Camuccio (Vocals), Dennis Downey (Rhythm Guitar), Bill Berthold (Drums), Ray Griffin (Bass) and Ralph Straight (Lead Guitar). The song "Endless Tears" was popular regionally and was included on the Psychedelic Crown Jewels Vol.3 compilation album that came out in 2000. The Flipside "Vicki" has a Mersey beat sound. Unfortunately for us it was the groups only record. There is a really good story on the Southern Garage Bands website about the Pebbles . Check it out
I dig Vicki! (:-)

ReplyDeleteHi. It's a great record out of state of Florida. I not sure of the value of the Pebbles 45. I'm guessing it might be in the $15- $30 range.
