1968
Brainbox is founded in Amsterdam. Pierre van der Linden is already gaining experience in After Tea, Jan Akkerman is already smelling chart success with The Hunters (The Russian Spy And I) and Kaz (currently still Casimirz) Lux is also active in a handful of groups.
1969
Brainbox's year of success. The band scores a few big hits, including with their own Down Man and with a special arrangement of Summertime by George Gershwin, which has an extra A-side with Dark Rose. Jan Akkerman gets perfect counterplay from the smoked voice of Kaz Lux. Despite the successes, the idiosyncratic Akkerman leaves Brainbox at the end of 1969 to form the progressive rock formation Focus with Thijs van Leer.
1970
This year, Pierre van der Linden will also switch to Focus. Jan Akkerman is replaced by guitarists Rudy de Queljoe (ex-Dragonfly) and Herman Meyer (ex-Fullhouse). The latter makes way for John Schuursma again. Van der Linden is briefly replaced by Shel Schellekens, but he is soon succeeded by Frans Smit (ex-September). The old, superior sound can still be heard on the debut Brainbox (recorded in the old line-up), which, in addition to his own work Dark Rose and Sea Of Delight, consists exclusively of striking renditions of songs by Paul Simon, George Gershwin, Lowell Fulsom, Jimmy Reed and Tim Hardin. Singles made with the new members show that the departure of Jan Akkerman is a major loss.
1971
This year the last members of the first hour will also leave the band: Kaz Lux and André Reijnen. Kaz Lux is replaced by Michel van Dijk (ex-Amsterdam) and André Reijnen by Robert Verwey (ex-Amsterdam). Guitarists Tony de Queljoe and Ronnie Meyjes are also part of the line-up. The dramatic changes of personnel have a negative effect on the music and ultimately the popularity of the group. The second LP Parts, on which De Queljoe is already missing, is recorded with producer John B. van Setten (including producer/manager of The Outsiders) and cannot match the excellent debut: the magic is missing and Brainbox slowly but surely sinks.

1968

Brainbox wordt opgericht in Amsterdam. Pierre van der Linden doet al ervaring op in After Tea, Jan Akkerman ruikt reeds aan hitparadesucces met The Hunters (The Russian Spy And I) en Kaz (in deze tijd nog Casimirz) Lux is ook al actief in een handvol groepen.

1969

Hèt succesjaar van Brainbox. De band scoort enkele grote hits, onder meer met het eigen Down Man en met een bijzondere bewerking van Summertime van George Gershwin, dat met Dark Rose overigens een extra a-kant heeft. Jan Akkerman krijgt perfect tegenspel van het doorrrookte stemgeluid van Kaz Lux. Ondanks de successen verlaat de eigenzinnige Akkerman eind 1969 Brainbox om met Thijs van Leer de progressieve rockformatie Focus te formeren.

1970

Dit jaar stapt ook Pierre van der Linden over naar Focus. Jan Akkerman wordt vervangen door de gitaristen Rudy de Queljoe (ex-Dragonfly) en Herman Meyer (ex-Fullhouse). De laatste maakt weer plaats voor John Schuursma. Van der Linden wordt even vervangen door Shel Schellekens, maar die wordt al snel opgevolgd door Frans Smit (ex-September). Het oude, superieure geluid is nog wel te horen op het debuut Brainbox (opgenomen in de oude bezetting), dat naast eigen werk Dark Rose en Sea Of Delight uitsluitend bestaat uit opvallende vertolkingen van nummers van Paul Simon, George Gershwin, Lowell Fulsom, Jimmy Reed en Tim Hardin. Singles gemaakt met de nieuwe leden laten horen dat het vertrek van Jan Akkerman een forse aderlating is.

1971

Dit jaar verlaten ook de laatste leden van het eerste uur de band: Kaz Lux en André Reijnen. Kaz Lux wordt vervangen door Michel van Dijk (ex-Amsterdam) en André Reijnen door Robert Verwey (ex-Amsterdam). Ook gitaristen Tony de Queljoe en Ronnie Meyjes maken deel uit van de bezetting. De dramatische wisselingen van personeel hebben een negatief effect op de muziek en uiteindelijk ook de populariteit van de groep. De tweede lp Parts, waarop De Queljoe alweer ontbreekt, wordt opgenomen met producer John B. van Setten (o.a. producer/manager van The Outsiders) en kan niet tippen aan het voortreffelijke debuut: de magie ontbreekt en langzaam maar zeker zakt Brainbox weg.
