THE GIANT CRAB - DAY BY DAY (IT HAPPENS)


This group from Santa Barbara started out as Ernie & The Emperors and released one (great) UK beat inspired 45 on Reprise Records in 1965. By 1967, the group reappeared as The Giant Crab and took on a harder rocking sound that still retains plenty of beat influence on this track.

Their final single, "ESP" was featured here a few years back, and a jaunt around the web shows that the surviving members all seem to be current gigging musicians.

from 1967...
