Shadows Of Knight-Gloria



Short History Of The Group By Wiki:

The Shadows of Knight are an American rock band from the Chicago suburbs, formed in the 1960s, who play a form of British blues mixed with influences from their native city (see Chicago blues). At the time they first started recording, the band's self-description was as follows: "The Stones, Animals and Yardbirds took the Chicago Blues and gave it an English interpretation. We've taken the English version of the Blues and re-added a Chicago touch.", to which noted rock critic Richie Unterberger commented: "The Shadows of Knight's self-description was fairly accurate. Although this mid-'60s garage band from the Windy City did not match the excellence of either their British or African-American idols, the teen energy of their recordings remains enjoyable,if not overwhelmingly original. The group took a tamer version of Them's classic Gloria into the American Top Ten in 1966, and also took a Yardbirdized version of Bo Diddley's 'Oh Yeah' into the Top 40 the same year
