[quote RgrF]I loved the music, brainless as it and I was at the time. They never did grow beyond their 60's bubblegum.
I wouldn't call it bubblegum. It was no more "brainless" than what the Beatles were doing at the time. It was 1964. It was Merseybeat!
(side note: the first British Invasion band to tour the US? DC5.)
Now, a few years later, while everyone from the British invasion is progressing a bit, you wanna throw in the Archies, the 1910 Fruitgum Company...that's bubblegum!
