"HaShmenim VeHaRazim", two 7" records: *"HaShmenim VeHaRazim" [1967], Hed Artzi (45 RPM). * "Ye Ye, Ma Yihiye" [1970], Hed Artzi.
The "HaShmenim VeHaRazim" band was active during the years 1967-1970. When it started its members were Uzi Fuchs, Gerard Kaminsky, Ilan Dudman and Uzi Boyanjo. At the end of 1967 it was the first band (except "HaHedim") that recorded original songs and issued a record. The responses to the record, which also included songs in English, were disappointing. The songs were hardly played on the radio, among other things due to the fact that Israeli bands were expected to sing in Hebrew. However, their live performances were successful. Good condition.
