Notes:
The band was formed in 1964 as "The Trenchcoats", but by 1966 the band had changed its name to fit in with the psychedelic vibe of the times – first to the Bloos Magoos, then to the more familiar Blues Magoos. In late 1966 Mercury Records signed the band to a record deal and the group's debut album Psychedelic Lollipop was released shortly thereafter. The album's single "(We Ain't Got) Nothin' Yet" reached #5 on the US Billborad chart. In a tour of the US in 1967 the Blues Magoos were the opening act, followed by The Who and headliners Herman's Hermits.
After one more minor chart single with "One By One," subsequent singles were largely ignored by record buyers. Neither of the two albums released after Psychedelic Lollipop (Electric Comic Book and Basic Blues Magoos) had much success. By 1968, the band was discouraged and they split up.
The group's management had other plans. The band was signed to ABC Records, but most of the members did not go along with this plan. Only Castro agreed and started up a revamped Blues Magoos. In 1969, the revamped band completed "Never Goin' Back To Georgia", but that release did not attract public attention either. Eaton left the band, and the other Blues Magoos used session musicians for the follow-up Gulf Coast Bound. It did poorly as well and though the Magoos struggled for another two years, they eventually parted ways.
