The group was led by former singer Michael Volker Kogel (born in Berlin, Germany, in 1944). The other four original members -- bassist (born in Corunna, Spain, 1943), guitarist Tony Martinez (born in Madrid, Spain, 1944), organist (Sevilla, Spain, 1942), and drummer (Barcelona, Spain, 1943) -- had all been working together previously in the Spanish group . Upon coming together to try their hand at cracking the English-speaking European pop market, this new configuration changed their name for a one-off single on Columbia Records' Spanish division before they eventually signed with Decca Records' Spanish division. They were assigned to work with successful British producer/arranger/conductor/composer (who had already scored numerous U.K. hits with , , , and others) in England. The result of this union of talent and proven production skills produced the band's first single, the rhythm-driven "Black Is Black," that same year. It shot up the charts to number two in the U.K. and on August 10, 1966, it charted on Billboard and CashBox. Soon the band enjoyed moderate to major success around the world.1966 LP Released on Press Records. # PR-73003 (Monaural).
