The Forum Quorum comprises a group of Greek and Italian boys who dispense what manager Hal Davis calls a ’Mediterranean sound’. Lead instruments are electric bouzouki, placed by Sturg Pardalis, and shepherd’s flute, played by Roger Galleo.
Pardalis doubles on electric guitar and Galleo on organ. Co-partner of Pardalis is Sal Palazzolo. Others include Mike Battalia on bass and Brian Albano on drums. The lead singers are Pardalis, Palazzolo and Galleo, who write most of the material for the group.
The age range is 17 to 19. Musical mentor of the combo is Gus Pardalis, director of the music department of a Queens, NV Junior High School and a composer. Ad man Davis has provided promotional and marketing advice, and has already implemented a many sided campaign. This includes a Decca Records contract, a movie. Mission To Mars, with Darrin McGavin and Nick Adams, and publication of a book in two months by Grosset & Dunlap titled How To Form A Rock Group.
Additionally, they have recorded the Girl Scout theme song, Follow The Piper, planned as a special project through that organization. Backing this up are engagements on the Mike Douglas Show, the Cheetah, teen clubs, commercials for Sattler’s department store in Buffalo, a national TV commercial and nightly sessions at the group’s home base in Astoria, NJ. Davis keeps the group under strict discipline. “I want them to realize the meter is running,“ he says.
He seeks to inculcate them with what is happening on the contemporary scene, and its relation to the past and future. “I want them to be articulate spokesmen of the world of rock,“ he says, “just as I expect their booh to be a guide to the rock business for young groups“
