SYNDICATE OF SOUND
Formed in San Jose, CA, in 1964, the Syndicate of Sound were one of the premier garage bandsand forerunners of psychedelic rock, establishing a national following based on one massive 1966 hit, "Little Girl."
Comprised of vocalist/guitarist Don Baskin, guitarist/keyboardist John Sharkey,
lead guitarist Jim Sawyers, bassist Bob Gonzalez, and drummer John Duckworth, the predecessors
to the Syndicate of Sound were groups called the Pharoahs and Lenny Lee & the Knightmen.
After recording an unsuccessful single for the Scarlet label, on January 9, 1966, Syndicate of Sound
recorded "Little Girl" at a studio in San Francisco for Hush Records; it became a regional
hit in California after San Jose radio stations latched onto it, attracting the attention
of executives at Bell Records in New York, who later asked the group to record an album
"LITTLE GIRL"

The teen-band pride of San Jose, CA, the Syndicate of Sound scaled the heights
of the rock & roll world for a very brief moment in the summer of 1966
with their Top Ten hit "Little Girl." With a catchy, jangly electric 12-string riff,
a solid beat, a macho teen vocal, and a chord progression heavily influenced by "Hey Joe,"
the tune perfectly mirrored the sound of the times and was a can't-miss hit,
a British sound played with American garage enthusiasm...(AllMusic)
