Picture 9-5 I mentioned the 60s German band Les 5 gentlemen earlier today, then came across this awesome video of them performing Cara-Lin. Members of the audience appear to be in the throes of Stendhal Syndrome. Link

hi this amazing band is actually french :)
they did 6 eps between 1965 and 1968
the first one under the name of "les ambitieux"
one of their tunes (dis moi dylan, tell me dylan) with a little hit in france and was covered by american band the sandals

you should also check stuff by les gypsys, les boots, maybe a little less funny but very good too
