Sounds Unlimited (7)

Dallas, Texas band formed in mid 1965 by WW Samuel High School kids. During their senior year in 66, the boys showed up to school with their newly grown out mop top manes. The principal,asked them not to return to school until they cut their hair.Not only did the band not want to change their hairstyles, but their contract with booking agen Alexander Kent specifically said that the band was not to cut their mop top hair. Kent quickly set up a meeting with a law firm called Gibbs, Hooks, and Wyrick. With the boys parents permission to allow attorneys to file an injunction, Herbert Hooks took the lead and the lawsuit became known as "Ferrell VS Dallas ISD". One day in between doing interviews for the Associated Press, Phil, Paul, and Steve quickly wrote a song called "Keep Your Hands Off Of It". Kent wanted the group to seize the opportunity and rushed them into Sumet Sound studio in Dallas to track it and another original song written by member Ron Davis called "About You". An acetate was immediately delivered to radio station KBOX and was getting airplay the day after the session was completed. Members: Paul Jarvis - Rhythm Guitar, Keys Ron Davis - Lead Guitar, Vocals Steve Webb - Rhythm Guitar, Vocals Phil Ferrell - Bass, Vocals Chuck Hodges - Drums, Harmony Vocals (later replaced by Ron Mears)
