A great band, I remember them playing at "Grandmas" nite club in Auckland in the late 60 & early 70s. Maurice Greer's Drums rocked and Billy TK's guitar sang!.
They had some great "Freakbeat-Psyche" 60s releases. Man they really got harder later on. Obviously very talented group just recently coming to my attention.

I thought so too! I saw them at Grandma's (Grandpa's was upstairs, if I remember correctly, and was members only) and then at the club they started themselves in Airdale Street, central Auckland (oposite the Town Hall, thereabouts). Maurice always played the drums when I saw them, and did most vocals as well. Maurice's brother Larry was usually hanging around and being an absolute nuisance to young ladies. I used to go there every Friday night, when I wasn't working at the Plaza picture theater.
..a product of their time. Great in a club, but going up against a prominent English band of the time, on the big stage? The results would be debatable. Great memories of the Auckland scene at the time, and of course the gift of hindsight.
Billy T.K is one of the best guitarists in the world.Awesome!
Billy T. K. is indeed a very talented Guitarist.

I thought Maurice Greer was lead vocalist / drummer of The Human Instinct? Did Billy T.K. also sing songs post "Stoned Guitar" on "Pins In It" album?
