Ro-d-ys music catalogue

46 items

Originating from Oude Pekela and active between 1966 - 1969. Under the name Popular Pipers Boys Band, the RO-D-YS have been very successful since 1964 as a cover group in the vicinity of Oude Pekela in Groningen. Their repertoire consists of their own songs plus material from The Kinks, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. In 1966 the name was changed to Rowdies, but because that name was already in use, an alternative spelling was chosen. Harry Rijnbergen and Bennie Groen went to ZEN in 1969.
