The Crawdaddys/The Ogres/Low Humbles
The Crawdaddys (San Diego) - The original Crawdaddys lineup formed in 1978, inspired by British rhythm-and-blues groups of the early 1960s, such as the Pretty Things and Rolling Stones. The original lineup included singer Ron Silva, bassist Mark Zadarnowski, guitarist Steve Potterf, and drummer Dan McLain. Potterf and Silva were both in the similar garage band the Hitmakers.
The quartet signed to Voxx records in 1979, releasing an album the following year and a 45 and EP in 1980. Having played together for awhile, they even played on albums by others, including Spooky Tooth, though the group fractured with various Silva-fronted lineups taking the band through 1984.
Potterf left the group after recording the first Crawdaddys LP, leaving Silva as head Crawdad. Unfortunately, the group's sound took a slight dive in aggression level as a result. Later lineups included guitarist Peter Miesner, keyboard player Keith Fisher, and drummer Gordon Moss.
McLain, later known as Country "Dick" Montana, passed away in 1995 while on tour with the Beat Farmers. Potterf apparently stopped making music.
Many early Crawdaddys recordings were mastered by Stan Ross, who mastered "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" for Iron Butterfly and worked with Phil Spector.
The band reunited in 2011 for a pair of shows: June 10, headlining the sixth annual "Go Sinner Go" festival in Spain, and again on September 2 at the Casbah. Memorial Day weekend was spent shooting at the Rhino Pop Up Store with filmmaker Eric Rife, in preparation for their September reunion show.
The current Crawdaddys line-up features Silva and Zadarnowski alongside members from slightly later lineups guitarist Peter Miesner, keyboard player Keith Fisher, and drummer Gordon Moss. (From the San Diego Reader)

These unloveable no-counts, failures with girls and socialization skills, sing and holler their woes for all to hear through perilous melody and head bobbing raves.
Rick, Steve and Richie make up this dusty trio of outcasts, armed with gear nobody wanted and songs rejected from every last one of your favourite childhood Scooby Doo episodes.
