Talk about your all ages shows. Here’s another Texas group that didn’t record to my knowledge.

The Mysterians came from Grand Prairie, just west of Dallas, east of Arlington. Members were Kenneth Rachels on drums, Johnny Atchley lead guitar, Terry Potter rhythm guitar and Richard Presley.

There’s a Mysterions who had a record on Jox in 1965, but they were from San Antonio, 4 hours drive away.

Again, sorry for the lousy photo quality (due to the microfilm transfer). Sometimes members of unknown bands like this made demo recordings or joined other groups that did record, or can shed light on other groups from the period.
