The Fabulous Farquahr started as The Avalon's in Branford in the late 50's or early 60's. They had one record "Daddy, I Cried" that got some local play.

They eventually met up with Doug Lapham and became "Doug Lapham and thE McGowan Bros". They became a fixture for awhile at the Hofbrau Haus on Chapel St in New Have (Yale Univ area).

That led to the Fabulous Farquahr act which entertained many, many fans for several years aound CT and the Cape.

In addition to My Eggs, My Island and John Deere, I really enjoyed "Carol, Your the bottom of the Barrel".

Sorry to hear that we have lost 2 of the brothers too soon.
