Bobby Fuller was found dead of asphyxiation in the front seat of his mother's car on July 18, 1966.

The band caused an international incident when they didn't attend a breakfast thrown at the Presidential Palace.

They had a sort-of reunion on the 'Billboard' Hot 100 for two weeks in 1971.

Television's first prime-time rock music show spawned a raft of imitators.

By 1968, Simon & Garfunkel had produced a string of folk-rock hits that included ‘The Sound of Silence,’ 'I Am a Rock' and ‘Mrs. Robinson.' But their chart success brought the duo criticism from folk music purists.
