  • In January 1966, the Olympics recorded for Randy Woods' Mirwood label. Their first release was "Secret Agents"/"We Go Together (Pretty Baby)." "Secret Agents" (which should have been big due to the James Bond craze) was re-released in March, this time with "Mine Exclusively" as the flip. "Exclusively" just broke the top 100 (#99) on the Pop charts (although it made it to #25 on the R&B charts).
    Their next Mirwood release was a remake of "Western Movies," backed with another dance record, "Baby Do The Philly Dog." "Dog," released in September 1966, turned out to be their last chart hit, peaking at #63 (#20 on the R&B charts).
    There were three more singles on Mirwood: a remake of "The Bounce," coupled with "The Duck"; "The Same Old Thing," backed with "I'll Do A Little Bit More"; and "Hully Gully," paired with "Big Boy Pete" (two more remakes). The Olympics would never have another national hit. In 1967, Mirwood released an LP called Something Old, Something New that contained all of their single recordings except for "The Same Old Thing."
