about
There were two 1960s bands with similar names, but different spellings: 1. The Chocolate Watchband from San Jose, CA., United States. 2. The Chocolate Watch Band from London, United Kingdom. If you are playing the American band, please suggest a spell correction to Last.fm. Not only would it fix the spelling, it would help differentiate between two bands. Unfortunately, Last.fm auto-corrects everything to the U.K. band at the moment, so scrobbles are badly mixed up. The Chocolate Watchband is an American garage rock band that formed in 1965 in Los Altos, California. The band went through several lineup changes during its existence. Combining psychedelic and garage rock components, their sound was marked by David Aguilar's lead vocals, as well as proto-punk musical arrangements. The band's rebellious musical posture made them one of the harder-edged groups of the period. This band should not be confused with The Chocolate Watch Band, a London-based UK group that issued two singles on Decca Records in 1967. The Chocolate Watchband was signed to Tower Records in 1966 and released their first single, "Sweet Young Thing", in 1967. Later in the year, the band released their debut album, No Way Out. Though the album was nationally unsuccessful, the band became a frequent attraction in San Jose and the San Francisco Bay Area. In 1968, their second album, The Inner Mystique, was released and included the band's most popular song, a cover version of "I'm Not Like Everybody Else". B
