The Watchband began to experiment with writing their own material around this time, with Dave Aguilar penning originals like " Right By My Side ", " Gone & Passes By ", " Don't Need Your Lovin ' Anymore " and " Sitting There Standing "; however, the producers had other songs they wanted the Watchband to record instead.
Although " Sweet Young Thing " gained strong airplay around San Francisco during the Spring of 1967, and has since been covered by the Australian band JET, it was poorly promoted by Uptown Records.
Too busy playing in the Bay Area, the band preferred to perform cover material of obscure British songs, although Their signature " Let's Talk About Girls " was penned by Manny Freiser of the Tongues of Truth, an Arizona band.
To the Watchband, the show was the sport.
Many times, they thoroughly intimidated headlining acts by blowing them off the stage with their wild and driving music.
The Watchband's second single was a commercial-sounding " Misty Lane ", released with an orchestrated ballad, " She Weaves a Tender Trap ", as its B-side, a choice that the band absolutely hated.
When the 45 was released, the band took boxes of them and used them for skeet shooting targets thrown off the back porch of Sean Tolby's house in the Santa Cruz mountains.
