Pulse (20)

PULSE was a psychedelic/blues rock group from New Haven, Connecticut, USA, in the late 1960s. The band rose from the ashes of two other area garage bands: The Shags, who released a string of singles on multiple labels from 1965 to 1967, and Bram Rigg Set, who offered up one single on the Kayden label that hit #1 in Brazil. Both groups were managed by music entrepreneur, engineer, producer, label and studio owner Thomas “Doc” Cavalier. Doc, a former dentist, also went by the moniker Trod Nossel and dubbed his recording studio and management company the same. Doc realized the potential of a collaboration between the former members of The Shags and Bram Rigg Set; and so PULSE was born. He inked the group to a record/management deal; and the sextet hit the studio with Cavalier behind the console. PULSE was comprised of Carl Donnell (vocals), Peter Neri (guitar, vocals), Paul Rosano (bass), Richard Bednarcyzrk (keyboards), Benet Segal (drums) and Jeffrey Potter (harmonica). They released one single on Atco Records in 1967 and released one single and one album on Poison Ring Records in 1968. PULSE was prolific and continued to record through 1970; with at least 17 previously-unreleased tracks that were released digitally in early 2024.
