THE GAMBLERS

Before Elliot Ingber joined The Mothers, he had been part of The Moondogs and of The Gamblers. With The Gamblers he had already released a couple of 7"s.

One of these singles was called 'Moon Dawg', and it's considered the first surf single.
Check it out below.
The B-side of 'Moon Dawg' had 'LSD-25', the first track that had a reference to LSD. (only by name, as it's another surf tune)
