The American band (3) was founded by guitarist Zippy Caplan and bassist Woody Woodrich. The band was very popular in Minnesota, mostly due to Caplan's fame playing with The Litter. The manager of radio station KDWB mistook the single Of Paupers and Poets for a song by Cream, giving valuable early airtime to the band.
Eventually, the band broke up due to musical differences, especially between Woodrich and Caplan.
