In 1980 we did our first reunion and went back into the studio. Back in 1960's The original Invictas were made up of the following four rockers:
Herb Gross - Singer, Leader, Rhythm guitar
Dave "Sticks" Hickey - Drummer
Jim "Spank" Kohler - Bass
Mark Blumenfeld - Lead Guitar
In 1980, for the reunion, we could not get Mark (who lives in California) so we added a great lead player, Dave Profeta who has been with us ever since.
The following songs will give you an idea of our music plus bands that (we know of anyway) have done covers of our music!!!@
