About The Rockin' Ramrods
Artist Biography
Along with the Remains, the Rockin' Ramrods were Boston's premier rock band in the mid-'60s. Unlike the Remains, they didn't gain even a modicum of exposure beyond their city, and are far more obscure. They were a decent if not significant group, sounding kind of like a Beatles-ized frat band yet relying largely upon original material, much of it penned by bassist Ronn Campisi. Over the course of more than-half-a dozen singles between 1963 and 1966, they competently tackled garage grunge, wild instrumentals, and some hard pop/rock originals with prominent keyboards. "Bright Lit Blues Skies," their best song, was a hit in the Boston area, but they achieved no other success of note before disbanding. ~ Richie Unterberger
