The Knickerbockers

I don't think that anyone has posted about this relatively obscure mid-60's band. Here's the video for their incredibly Beatle-esque song "Lies," featuring some great Rickenbacker Sounds:

Actually it was linked on 11/11/06 when I downloaded it from YouTube, but it is a great song and always nice to see again - thanks!

First watch I was amazed they looked like that, not what I expected at all. I envisioned darker, long hair and a more mod look, not the 60's frat look.

Yes, there was a long thread (including a post by me on how a bit sounded like That Thing You Do).

There is also a thread on this clip over on the RIC corp site.

That's probably how I found this video in the first place...

I used to have their LP when it first came out.
