Can anyone account for the Trendells whose remake of Tony Allen's Nite Owl did so well, but didn't chart anywhere else in the known universe? Who was in the group - were they from the IE? Questions - questions...I know.

Now, some answers...

Oliver Cool was Rod McKuen...
the Fencemen were David Gates & Leon Russell...now who were the Trendells? Please tell me, I've got to know.

Correction on the previous post...it wasn't the Tony Allen "Nite Owl," it was the different song by the Dukays - Gene Chandler's group on Duke Of Earl...sorry.
