The
Spontanes
have
a
rich
history
that
spans
over
40
years.
It
is
amazing
how
often
someone
will
approach
us
at
a
gig
and
say
they
used
to
be
a
member
of
the
band.
Some
were,
a lot
were
not.
Now
with
the
advent
of
the
internet
many
different
stories
are
being
told.
For
the
sake
of
posterity
we
are
constructing
this
page.
It
will
start
at
the
beginning
and
connect
all
the
dots
to
the
present.
Here's
the
rub,
we're
still
here
with
fire
in
our
eyes
and
music
in
our
souls.
Our
tentacles
go
all
the
way
back.
The
information
on
this
page
will
be
straight
from
the
"horses
mouth".
This is a work in progress, we'll go through the record deal with United Artist in '68, the birth of "Harley Hogg and the Rockers in '74, The "Nights of Summer" beach era of the 70's and early 80's, the transformation in '82, "Pass the Loot" in '87, the 50's show in '88, the 70's show in the 90's, the TNN video "Where's the Food, Ya'll" in '90, working with Archie Bell and Ray Peterson throughout the 90's, Percy Sledge in the late 90's, "Playin' It By Ear" in2002, and wait 'til you hear about what we're up to now! |

A
complete
chart
of
the
line-up
for
every
year
of
our
existence
is
almost
done.
From
there
we'll
add
pictures,
sound
clips,
videos
and
anecdotes
from
various
band
members.
Check
back
often.
For
now,
here's
a
few
pictures
to
get
started.
