Overview

The 1960s were an amazing sliver of time that occurred after the sock hops burned out and before disco, house music, and rap came onto the scene. Making Music With The Wellingtons revisits that era and its burgeoning rock-and-roll scene, when a garage cover band called The Wellingtons makes the rounds of northeastern Wisconsin. Duane Schultz and his young friends are all about honoring the music, working hard, having fun, and playing as many venues as possible. Humorous and wholesome, Making Music With The Wellingtons offers the reader a glimpse into the rise of The Wellingtons and the teenagers who started it. It's a fun, informative snapshot of the times-for those who shared the experience of being in an old-time garage band or cover group, those who wanted that experience but couldn't make it happen, and those who knew someone in such a band. Above all, this book is for anyone who loves music-especially those who love to make music!
