We Five was the first of the "Top 40" San Francisco sound groups. Nominated as best new artist of 1965, it was the definitive folk rock group, a bridge between the Doors and Peter, Paul and Mary. It marked the beginning of a jump by college age record buyers from acoustic groups to the "plugged in" rock groups of the late 60's and early 70's.
