A parody of a Beatles song that would knock “Hello, Goodbye” out of the #1 position, and John Lennon actually liked this! John Fred Gourrier had a few regional hits around his native Baton Rouge and south Louisiana while playing frat parties at LSU. “Band” was later added to their name to avoid confusion with the similarly named Gary Lewis group. They were at a Florida gig when Gourrier saw a guy chatting up a girl. Big sunglasses were in fashion, and when the girl took them off John Fred said her face could stop a clock. Ackkk. A true one-hit wonder.
