THE HUMAN BEINZ

Best-known for its version of "Nobody but Me," Youngstown, OH's frat rock 

quartet the Human Beinz featured rhythm guitarist Ting Markulin, 

lead guitarist Richard Belley, bassist Mel Pachuta, and drummer Mike Tatman. 

Originally known as the Human Beings, the group was a local favorite and 

was discovered playing at a Youngstown bar. Their early releases include 

covers of Bob Dylan's "Times They Are A-Changin'" and Them's "Gloria," 

as well as renditions of the Who and Yardbirds songs; they released their 

first singles on the local Gateway imprint. In 1967, the group signed to 

Capitol Records and scored a Top Ten hit with their cover of the Isley Brothers' 

"Nobody but Me." On their debut album, which was also named Nobody but Me, 

the band found their name changed to the Human Beinz, a play on the hippie phrase "be-in."

In 1967, the Human Beinz scored a hit single with their feedback-laced cover of The Isley Brothers' "Nobody But Me", 

and for a brief and fleeting moment the boys from Youngstown, Ohio were bone fide rock stars. 

While their first album wasn't anything out of the ordinary, when they went into the studio 

to record their second LP, they were determined to create something unusual, and you can't argue 

that they succeeded with Evolutions. An amusing pastiche of neo-psychedelic excess, Evolutions is 

a far cry from the slightly trippy frat rock of their hit; "The Face" is a tale of lost love drenched with 

horns and strings, "Close Your Eyes" is a delicate, mostly acoustic plea for hippie-era togetherness, 

"My Animal" is an oblique pseudo-protest number leavened with sound effects, and 

"I've Got to Keep on Pushing" is a showcase for Richard Belley's snarling guitar leads. 

But the real descent into the maelstrom comes with the album's last two tracks; 

the country rock workout "Two of a Kind" concludes with the sound of someone tearing apart 

a piano for several minutes, and the seven-minute "April 15th" gives Belley room for all the 

guitar freak-out-age he ever dreamed of, which may be a bit more than most fans actually 

wanted to hear. The Human Beinz are a better and more imaginative band than one might expect 

on Evolutions; Mel Pachuta, Ting Markulin, and Mike Tatman are a solid rhythm section, 

the songs (mostly written by Lex De Azevedo, who also produced 

and arranged the album) are pretty good...(AllMusic)
