Terry & the Telstars 'Reasons' Official Music Video

Terry & the Telstars were one of the most successful 60s garage bands in Maine, sharing the stage with the Jimi Hendrix Experience, the Blues Magoos, Tommy James and the Shondells, and the Cowsills. Their popularity led to recording sessions at Ace Studios in Boston. Two songs were released in the late 60s during a brief period when they had changed their name to White Fluff. Those songs included the pop ballad "Stoned Lonely" and a whimsical ditty titled "Vegetable Binge." They also recorded "Reasons" and "Stop and Think" which both sat on the shelf for 30 years before being released on the CD compilation "New England Teen Scene."

The original group included Terry McCarthy (lead guitar), Nick Knowlton (lead vocal), Peter Nadeau (keyboards), Roland Bechard (bass guitar), and Dan Caron (drums). Paul Roy replaced Bechard on bass guitar when the band reunited for the 2010 Pal Hop Reunion concert.

The footage for this video was recorded during a rehearsal, and also at the 2010 concert. It was shot by a video team directed by Bill Maroldo who also did the edit. The assistant editor was John Cyr. The camera team included Maroldo, Nick Woodward, Mark Ireland, and Francis Gagnon.
