The band's roots trace back to 1975, when Kuwata Keisuke was part of a popular group Better Days. The group saw many changes to its name and members. It was when keyboardist Hara Yuko and bassist Sekiguchi Kazuyuki joined the group that it had a permanent name.
After more and more changes of members, the group finally saw light as they released their debut single 'Katte ni Sinbad' in 1978.

踊る姿がいかしてる
You are an another girl
Shy なそぶり最高
You are so beautiful
振り向いておくれな
誰を待つのさ何ゆえに
You are an another girl
夢を見ちゃいそうな
You are so beautiful
ステレオみたいに
It's up to you
I'd like to fall in love with you
どんな態度が君にいいのか分らないよ
Hand jive moan, feel me groove
Just an another lover

これを聞いて、ソアラに乗って、隣に女子大の女の子を毎回何人か違う娘を生駒スカイライン、六甲山へ連れて行き夜景をみて、マック食べて、燃料無駄に使って、大学行かずにずーっと走りに行ってたあの頃、ふぞろいの林檎たちを語り！
もう懐かしすぎる昭和!
あの!何も考えてないで１日１日を過ごしていたあの昭和!
ちょっと誰かに用事があれば、公衆電話ボックスを探していた昭和!
まだ、一万円札が大きかった、聖徳太子の一万円札の昭和!
あー!リターン昭和!!!
ありがとう昭和!
そして、その頃から現在までずーっと輝くサザン・オールスターズ!!
いや、桑田佳祐さん
あなたが居なければ私たちのバックミュージックは何だったのだろう!
てか、私の場合、松田聖子とのコンビでカーステレオから、テープが伸びるまで聴いて、デッキに絡まるまで聴いていた昭和!!
ありがとう!!!昭和天皇!

「Hello My Love」のイントロが死ぬほど好きです。針を落とした、スイッチを入れたその一瞬で、ステキな魔法をかけられるような感じが。
