The group was led by former Mike & the Runaways singer Michael Volker Kogel (born in Berlin, Germany, in 1944). The other four
original members -- bassist Miguel Vicens Danus (born in Corunna, Spain, 1943), guitarist Tony Martinez (born in Madrid, Spain, 1944),
organist Manuel Fernandez (Sevilla, Spain, 1942), and drummer Pablo Sanllehi (Barcelona, Spain, 1943) -- had all been working
together previously in the Spanish group Los Sonors. 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 Ivor Raymonde (who had already scored numerous U.K. hits with Marty Wilde, Billy Fury, Dave
Berry, 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.
