Matadors
years active: 1965 - 1970
excellent rock'n'roll and R&B band started in early 60's, insired by Yardbirds, Spencer Davis Group, Small Faces. Related tightly to Flamengo, in 1967 the two bands switched their lead vocals (Karel Kahovec from Matadors to Flamengo, Viktor Sodoma from Flamengo to Matadors). In early 70's a part of the band played in Munich, Germany in a German version of the famous musical "Hair" (as The Broadway Matadors); they haven't come back after that.
