The New Generations came from St Marys, a rural town in NW Pennsylvania. They had one single on the amazingly-named Bomb Records, “It’s Alright” written by Victor St. John b/w “I Told You Once” by Blake Haberberger. Both songs were produced by Larry Fairchild and published by Magnetic Reproductions, BMI
I’m partial to the b-side, “I Told You Once” which has a perfectly moody, low-key atmosphere.
The RCA custom pressing code SK4M 3110/1 indicates the second half of 1965, the labels also have other codes: 885-2, YZ 2154/5 whose meaning I don’t know.
I’ve read two members were with the St. Marys band the Cyclones, who had their own excellent single, “She’s No Good” / “Time for Me to Leave” both written by Hampton for Lee Music BMI in December 1965.
If anyone knows the names of other members of either band, or has a photo of either group, please contact me.

My mom was in this band. Her stage name was Jean Gabriel. Her real name, Arlene Shoup. My Uncle Larry was also in the band. I’ll try to find some pictures.
I knew the band members. They played in Punxsy at the skating rink for several years. I met your mom. She played keyboard. I knew Cork, Danny, Blake.
Where are the members of this band? Still playing guitar?
