Description
Two photographs of the Young Executives performing live in concert. The second photograph contains handwritten text that say, "Rolling Stones on Tour. The Executives in action at 'The Scene'." The Scene was a nightclub located at 301 West 46th Street in New York City, New York, that operated from 1964 to 1969.
Initially called the Executives, the band was formed in 1963 by Jesse Cutler (then known as Lou London), Ricky Shutter and Steve Wagner. The band signed to Mercury Records in 1964, where they recorded a hit single called "Everybody Do the Duck". That same year, the band appeared as guests on the Joe Franklin Show, Wonderama, The Clay Cole Show, American Bandstand, Hullaballoo and Shindig. Over the next two years they performed at charity events and private celebrity parties all over Long Island and New York City. They played in the company of the Rolling Stones, Sammy Davis Jr., Barbra Streisand, Anthony Newley, Joan Collins and the Beatles. The group broke up in 1966.
