History[edit] 1964 - 1971[edit] The band was formed in 1964 as "The Trenchcoats". The original members were Emil "Peppy" Thielhelm aka "Peppy" Castro (vocals and guitar), Dennis LePore (lead guitar), Ralph Scala (organ and vocals), Ron Gilbert (bass) and Jon Finnegan (drums). The band made a name for itself in various clubs in Greenwich Village. By 1966 the band had changed its name to fit in with the psychedelic vibe of the times - they first changed their name to the Bloos Magoos, which was then changed to the more familiar Blues Magoos.

They also made some line-up changes, bringing in Mike Esposito as lead guitarist, and Geoff Daking as drummer. The next single by the Blues Magoos, "There's A Chance We Can Make It," was only a minor hit, with its b-side "Pipe Dream" actually charting higher (though neither side hit the top 40). The group's management had other plans. 1972 - present[edit] Discography[edit] Re-releases on CD[edit] The original group's output on CD is now complete. Psyilocybinsounds. Porcupine Tree.
