The music played was all covers of contempory pop music with mixture of Motown/R&B/Bee Gees.  However in the early years the band was an instrumental band covering all the Shadows hits.For a couple of years in the late 60's the band played at Dounan's School Camp in Aberfoyle to an International Gathering of older students.The band eventually changed their name to Spinning Wheel in 1972.
