Many Andover bands recorded during the sixties, including the Invictas in 1961, the Satans' Raising Hell LP from '62, the Torques in '63, the Apostles with two albums in 1964-65, and the Group with a four song EP in 1967. The Ha'pennys recorded their album Love Is Not the Same at Continental about the same time as the End made their 45.

A year later another Andover band, the Rising Storm would also travel to Framingham to make their LP, Calm Before..., by far the most famous of all these releases.

For some reason the End only recorded one 45 while the rest of these bands (with the exception of the Group) recorded whole LPs. In any case they do fine with their two originals, especially the catchy Bad Night. The flip, Make Our Love Come Through is a fine ballad. No names on the label, so I can't tell you who was in the band.

Andover's most lasting legacy, however, is George W. Bush, a '64 graduate who probably saw a few of these bands play, and is now in the process of dismantling the Constitution while waging an illegal war.

As for the label name, that apparently comes from the Batman TV series, hugely popular that year: "Catwoman, I find you to be odious, abhorrent, and insegrievious." It's not as bad as it sounds - a slang dictionary defines insegrievious as expressing anything and nothing at the same time in an impressive sounding way.

The End - Bad Night
The End - Make Our Love Come Through
