THE TROGGS
RONNIE BOND (BULLIS), CHRIS BRITTON, REG PRESLEY (BALL), PETE STAPLES
Remembered chiefly as proto-punkers who reached the top of the charts with the "caveman rock"
of "Wild Thing" (1966), the Troggs were also adept at crafting power pop and ballads.
Hearkening back to a somewhat simpler, more basic British Invasion approach as psychedelia
began to explode in the late '60s, the group also reached the Top Five with their flower-power
ballad "Love Is All Around" in 1968. While more popular in their native England than the U.S.,
the band also fashioned memorable, insistently riffing hit singles like "With a Girl Like You,"
"Night of the Long Grass," and the notoriously salacious "I Can't Control Myself" between 1966 and 1968.
Paced by Reg Presley's lusting vocals, the group -- which composed most of their own material,
could crunch with the best of them, but were also capable of quite a bit more range
and melodic invention than they've been given credit for
