PEPPY CASTRO - BLUES MAGOOS
Peppy Castro has done it all and is a successful seasoned professional with great variety in his music! His fame and 1st hit record began at the age of 17
as one of the founding fathers of the legendary rock group," The Blues Magoos”.
His rock and roll status led him to a starring role in the original Broadway
Production of Hair. He is also an award-winning playwright and multi-instrumentalist. In February of 1967, Mercury released a single called "We Ain't Got Nothin' Yet".The song was a Top Twenty hit for the 'Magoos' in America. He has since pursued a varied career as a member of Barnaby Bye, Wiggy Bits and Balance, while Cher and Kiss are among the artists who have recorded his songs. Although they were only "one hit wonders", Blues Magoos, with their electric suits and giant,
onstage lava lamps, are fondly remembered as a classic example of the "psychedelic" music era.
