The Pleazers

Within the mid-’60s, the Pleazers were among the only New Zealand groups competently playing tough, British Invasion/R&B-styled rock and roll & roll; these were most likely only second towards the La-De-Da’s within their homeland in this respect. They were able to record about 50 % twelve singles, an LP, and an EP, attaining a few strikes in New Zealand and playing some stints in Australia throughout their short life. Mixing regular covers of that time period with fairly solid original materials, the Pleazers weren’t an extraordinary music group; in america or Britain, they might are already just another good regional act. Challenging rock and roll bands had been still a rarity in New Zealand, though, so the Pleazers remain appreciated there as trailblazers of kinds.
