dbo:abstract
  • The Outsiders waren eine US-amerikanische Rock-Gruppe, die Mitte der 1960er-Jahre einige Erfolge, vornehmlich in den USA, verbuchen konnten. Tom King spielte seit Anfang der 1960er Jahre in etlichen Amateur-Bands, ehe er beschloss, selbst eine Band zu gründen. So entstand 1965 die Gruppe „The Starfires“. Sie wurde in der Gegend um Cleveland, Ohio, sehr schnell populär und erhielt im gleichen Jahr einen Plattenvertrag. Anfang 1966 veröffentlichte die Gruppe dann unter dem neuen Namen The Outsiders die erste Single „Time Won't Let Me“, die sogleich ein Hit wurde und unter die ersten Fünf der amerikanischen Charts kam. Der zweite Hit war eine Neufassung des Songs „Respectable“, im Original von den Isley Brothers. Beide Songs stammten aus der LP „Time Won't Let Me“. Danach ließ der Erfolg nach, und die „Außenseiter“ lösten sich Ende der 1960er wieder auf. Der Sänger Sonny Geraci gründete Anfang der 1970er-Jahre noch die Band „Climax“, die mit „Precious And Few“ einen Millionenseller veröffentlichten. (de)

Allmusic described the act's style: "Part of the secret behind the Outsiders' musical success lay in the group's embellishments [with horns and strings], which slotted in perfectly with their basic three- or four-piece instrumental sound ... however bold and ambitious they got, one never lost the sense of a hard, solid band sound at the core."
