 Biography :

The Martinels were signed with a newly founded record company Success Records. Success Records was formed by Victor Laslow and their office was on 6th ave., in Des Moines, Iowa.  In the summer of '63, the Blendtones, The Martinels, The Extensions went on a very successful tour on the West Coast.

  

Upon completion of the tour, it was suggested that an album be produced featuring all of the artists that were currently signed with the company. Hence, the album Only For Teenagers And Swinging Adults was born. "Baby, Think It Over" and "I Don't Care" were written by George Davis from the Blendtones.
