Before Nirvana and Pearl Jam introduced grunge rock to the world in the early 1990's, the Northwest had The Fabulous Wailers, pioneers of garage rock and the original Seattle Sound. "The Boys from Tacoma" hit number 36 on the Billboard magazine chart with "Tall Cool One" in 1959 while they were still in high school, landing them appearances on American Bandstand and The Allan Freed Show. Now, the members of the band that rearranged the classic "Louie Louie" and influenced a generation of rock groups - including the Beatles - are finally getting recognition. |
