THE SHARADES

 


The Sharades were a short-lived band formed in Melbourne in 1967. The band released one single on the Scope label. The A side was a cover of The Young Rascals ''What Is The Reason'' with Bob Dylan's ''Love Minus Zero'' on the flipside. Clive Mitchell stated '' the reason we did a cover version of What is The Reason by The Young Rascals is that we dig their music so much that we thought it would be a good number to record''. The band played at all the major city venues. After they disbanded Tony Enery would turn up in The Perfection and later played on boogie band Carson's single ''Resting Place'' recorded in 1970. As far as the other members go, I have no idea.
