The T-Bones were an American musical group formed in 1963, operating under Liberty Records. Initially a studio recording act, their early albums featured session musicians known as The Wrecking Crew, who were renowned for their versatile contributions to numerous hit records of the era. Their debut album, Boss Drag, included tracks like "Draggin'" and "Shut Down", showcasing their beat music roots. In 1964, they released Boss Drag at the Beach and later Doin' the Jerk (1965), further establishing their presence in the burgeoning rock music scene. In 1966, The T-Bones released another album titled No Matter What Shape (Your Stomach's In), featuring the hit single of the same name. This track, based on the melody from a commercial for Alka-Seltzer, reached number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100. The follow-up single, "Sippin' N Chippin", peaked at number 62, and the accompanying album hit number 75 on the Billboard 200. However, due to The Wrecking Crew's reluctance to tour, Liberty Records assembled a different group to represent The T-Bones publicly. This "public" lineup included Judd Hamilton, Dan Hamilton, Joe Frank Carollo, Tommy Reynolds, and Gene Pello. They recorded the final album Everyone's Gone To The Moon (And Other Trips) in 1966 before disbanding later that year. After their disbandment, several members of the "public" T-Bones went on to form the soft rock trio Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds in the 1970s, continuing their musical careers with notable success.
