The Nightcrawlers
The Little Black Egg
Kapp KL-1520 (mono)
The Nightcrawlers were a Daytona Beach, Florida band with a hit single, "The Little Black Egg", recorded in 1965. The single ultimately reached 85 on the national charts after its third re-release in 1967. The group had three other singles "Cry", "A Basket of Flowers" and "I Don't Remember". The five original members were: Pete Thomason, Sylvan Wells, Robbie Rouse, Chuck Conlon and Tommy Ruger.
Their sound is best described as sparse folk rock, popularized by The Byrds, The Beau Brummels, etc. They did one LP album for Kapp Records, but the original lineup disbanded in 1966, before the final (and most popular) release of "The Little Black Egg". The reformed Nightcrawlers did one more single for Kapp, "My Butterfly" written by band members Sylvan Wells and Rick Hollinger, in a more hard rock vein and then disbanded. The original main songwriter, Charlie Conlon, later reformed the group under the name "Conlon and the Crawlers", although the group never recorded again after 1967. The group continued with different members and eventually disbanded in 1970.
