Peter Wheat and the Breadmen

Peter Wheat and the Breadmen were an American garage rock band formed in Fremont, California, in 1964. The group became a popular live attraction regionally, and released one single that has since been reissued on compilation albums.
==History==

Peter Wheat and the Breadmen's origins trace back to a rock and roll group called the Night Caps which formed in Oakland in 1957. The band became regionally popular on the teen club circuit in Northern California, and released two singles on Amber Records that were composed of self-penned material by saxophonist Barry Carlos.〔(【引用サイトリンク】year=2007 )〕 After seven years of being billed as the Night Caps, the group decided after a rehearsal to change the name to better assimilate with changing musical tastes. Carlos recalled how the band came up with the new moniker, saying, "'How about something that has to do with money, like dough or bread.' Bob Fox instantaneously blurted out with, 'How about Peter Wheat and The Breadmen?' (For those who don't know, Peter Wheat was a bread company that delivered bread to your home in brightly painted trucks)".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Peter Wheat & The Breadmen )
The band debuted the new name in 1964 at Fremont's UAW Hall, without mentioning Peter Wheat and the Breadmen were the Night Caps to see if the name alone would attract a large audience. For six months, the group performed regionally while outfitted with bakers aprons. After achieving a considerable following, the group disbanded, and Carlos formed BLP Productions to promote the next band that would carry on the Peter Wheat and the Breadmen name.〔(【引用サイトリンク】year=2007 )〕 Carlos discovered Fremont quintet the Tarantels, whose lineup consisted of Robby Kennedy (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Barry Houk (lead guitar), Bob Birdwell (bass guitar), Terry Reisman (drummer), and Chuck Tedford (keyboards), gigging at San Leandro Rollerina in support of the Turtles. Carlos explains his decision to choose the Tarantels, saying, "they were not afraid to test their creativity by exploring innovative chord changes on new original material or embark on complicated arrangements of cover tunes that I arranged for them".〔 Although initially the Tarantels assumed the Peter and the Breadmen identity almost exactly, upon the band's insistence, they dropped the apron gimmick in favor of their own style.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Peter Wheat and the Breadmen Discography )
Thanks to Carlos's marketing and scheduling, Peter Wheat and the Breadmen soon began opening for prominent music acts such as the Byrds, the Animals, and frequently were paired with Paul Revere and the Raiders.〔 In March 1966, the band recorded "Baby, What's New?" and "All the Time" for their lone single, which was released on the Amber label and met with regional success. With all the good fortune the band was enjoying, they were scheduled to open for the Beatles' August 29, 1966 performance at Candlestick Park, however conflicts with labor unions limited the group to being spectators to the Fab Four's final live act. In September 1966, Birdwell and Kennedy were met with controversary when their school district refused enrollment by reasoning that their hair was too long. The opposition received brief national media attention until Birdwell and Kennedy conceded and trimmed their hair. In late 1966, Peter Wheat and the Breadmen, as a result of Carlos's encouragement and inspiration from the Beatles' song "Got to Get You Into My Life", added a horn section to their live act. However, the professionalism of the horn players clashed with the band's free-form instrumentals, and consequently caused the group's disbandment in early 1967.〔
Since their breakup, the band's material has resurfaced on compilation albums, making their single revered among garage rock enthusiasts. The song "Baby, What's New?" appears on ''Pebbles, Volume 10'' and ''You Got Yours! East Bay Garage: 1965 - 1967'', and "All the Time" is featured on ''Pebbles, Volume 11: Northern California''.〔
