Today’s Video: “One-hit Wonders” - ? and the Mysterians
Our focus of today’s video clip is the garage rock classic “96 Tears” by ? and the Mysterians. The group formed in 1962 and all the members are supposedly of Mexican descent. The organ-heavy sound and plaintive lyrics from frontman Question Mark, (formerly known as Rudy Martinez), helped “96 Tears” become the #1 single in October 1966.
