Cobb, singer Rodney Justo, drummer Robert Nix and keyboard player Dean Daughtry. The band's chart singles included "Georgia Pines" (1967) and "Ways" (1968). Their self-titled album peaked at No. 195 in the US. They often performed as the backing band of Roy Orbison. They opened for Pink Floyd during their first US Tour in 1967.
