The Pussycats - Touch Wood (Reissue) (1973)

The Pussycats were among Norway's most important pop groups in the 1960s. The Pussycats were formed under the name The Typhones in Tromsø in 1962, and under this name they went to Sweden in 1964 to try their luck. There they first changed their name to The Arctics, as a kind of marking of the area they are from. There they met Sten Ekroth, who offered to become their manager. It was Ekroth who gave the group the name The Pussycats. He also got them the Swedish organist Ingemar Stjerndahl from the group The Vexers.
