Hailing from the same fertile mid-60's Boston rock n roll scene that birthed Barry & The Remains, the equally talented Lost released two amazing singles before breaking up in 1967. The Lost was fronted by Boston rock/ punk legend Willie Alexander, aka Lou reed's "replacement" in the Velvet Underground. Bassist Walter Powers also ended up as another Velvet Underground member.
The members of the lost (Willie Alexander, vocals; Ted Myers, vocals/ guitar; Hugh Magbie, vocals & guitar; Walter Powers,bass & vocals and Tony Pfeiffer, drums) were highly influenced by the British Invasion, and formed a group around that sound and mod style - The group, originally from Vermont, moved to Boston shortly after forming. The group's star rose quickly, and was scouted by Capitol Records who signed them in 1965.
