1959 – 1961 The Spotnicks – In The Beginning
De här är de tidigaste inspelningarna (1959 till 61) och sammanställningen introduceras av den autentiska signalen från den allra första satelliten – Sputnik 1 – som senare kom att bli upphovet till att gruppen fick heta The Spotnicks .
Allt började med The Rebels som bestod av av Bo Winberg, Bo Starander och Björn Thelin.
När Ove Johansson anslöt till gruppen tog man namnet The Frazers.
Många inspelningar spelas in i en plastfabrik på en vanlig Tandberg-bandspelare när gruppen fortfarande kallade sig för The Frazers.
Det var först när skivbolaget Karusell gav ut deras första skiva som man hade ändrat gruppnamnet till The Spotnicks.
Bo Winberg, tillsammans med Peter Winsnes, gjorde tidigt några inspelningar för den finska marknaden och då kallade man sig för The Feenades.

These are the earliest recordings (1959 to 61) and the compilation begins with the authentic signal from the very first satellite – Sputnik 1 – which later became the origin of the group’s name The Spotnicks.
It all started with The Rebels which consisted of Bo Winberg, Bo Starander and Björn Thelin.
When Ove Johansson joined the group, it was named The Frazers.
Many of these early recordings are made in a plastic factory on a regular Tandberg tape recorder when the group still was calling themselves The Frazers.
It was when the record company Karusell released their first record that they had changed the group name to The Spotnicks.
Bo Winberg, along with Peter Winsnes, made some early recordings for the Finnish market and then they called themselves The Feenades.
