From Montreal, M.G. & The Escorts were managed by Beaconsfield High School teacher Mel McCormack. They found themselves gaining regional notoriety in May 1966 with their first single "Please Don't Ever Change" on CFCF radio.

The follow-up, "I Can't Go On", was released in September 1966 but did not receive any chart action.

But, by January 1967 they were once again at the top of the charts with "A Someday Fool" which saw them hit Top10.

The buzz on the group led to the prospect of recording a full-length LP in Texas which never materialized. Their fortunes changed for the worse, members abandoned ship and eventually the group changed its name to Graham Power & the Escorts before calling it quits in the late 1960's.

with notes from Andre Gibeault and Dave Stacey.
