The Outsiders - 1966 - Time Won't Let Me & Capitol Collector's Series
The Outsiders - 1966 - Time Won't Let Me The Outsiders were a continuation of the Starfires; a total of eight former Starfires were members of the Outsiders at one time or another. In 1964, the Starfires had added future Outsiders frontman Sonny Geraci on lead vocals and his brother Mike Geraci on sax. In an interview, Sonny Geraci stated: "The Starfires were a few years older than me.... When I joined the group, I kind of like, pushed them to record and change the drummer and change the guitar player." The band was signed to Capitol Records on the strength of their late 1965 recording of "Time Won't Let Me" (written by Tom King and his brother-in-law, Chet Kelley), leaving a local recording label headed by King's uncle, Patrick Connelly (Pama Records); at this time, the band's name was changed. Most of the band's original songs were written by King and Kelley, although another songwriter, Bob Turek was working with the band by 1967. Reasons for the name change were unclear, although most sources state that it was at the insistence of their new record label. "Time Won't Let Me" sold over one million copies, and was awarded a gold disc. 01 - Chase Away The Tears 02 - Girl In Love 03 - Keep On Running 04 - Listen People 05 - Maybe Baby 06 - My Girl 07 - Rockin' Robin 08 - She Cried 09 - Time Won't Let Me 10 - Was It Really Real 11 - What Makes You So Bad You Weren't Brought Up That Way LINK The Outsiders - 1965-70 - Capitol Collector's Series 01 - Time Won't Let Me 02 - Was It Really Real? 03 - Girl In Love 04 - What Makes You So Bad (You Weren't Brought Up That Way) 05 - Chase Away The Tears 06 - Respectable 07 - Lost In My World 08 - Backwards, Upsidedown! 09 - Lonely Man 10 - Oh!
