Hah! Fooled ya! Thought you were gonna see a clip of David Lee and Nate Robinson jamming together? (Or given this post's nostalgic bent, Bill Bradley and Earl the Pearl belting out "Stairway to Heaven?")
No, this isn't about our beloved sixth-place lottery pick team and corporate sibling-to-be.
This is about another Knickerbockers, a classic one-hit wonder, a garage/frat band from Bergenfield, NJ, who were probably the first American band to truly nail the Beatles' sound. Close your eyes and you're sure to think -- as I did back in 1966, the first time I heard this song -- that The Knickerbockers' "Lies" is actually the Fab Four performing under an alias.
Dig this clip (especially the saxophonist who never plays his instrument!):
