THE INVICTAS

Rochester, NY band that had a big local hit with the rudimentary dance song "The Hump," though a claim 

on the liner notes to an album sleeve that the single even outstripped sales of the Beatles in the New York State 

area is probably fatuous. (Unless the Beatles just didn't happen to have a single out at the time.) 

Though "The Hump" is well-regarded by some garage fans, the Invictas were definitely below average 

for the genre. With a semi-soul orientation, they could be viewed as sort of a garage 

Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels, although that description might be leading you to expect too much...(AllMusic)
