No band in the Central United States drew larger crowds, caused more excitement or had more influence on thousands of aspiring rock musicians than “The Flippers”. Based out of Lawrence, Kansas – The Flippers took the Midwest by storm throughout the 60’s – drawing sold out crowds from Texas to North Dakota and from Colorado to Illinois. Advertising their shows on KOMA Radio from Oklahoma City, OK they drew teens driving hundreds of miles to a “Flipper Dance”.A number of musicians traveled through the Flippers including Norfolk, Nebraska’s Max “Carl” Gronenthal – who has been inducted into the Nebraska
Music Hall of Fame with his 60’s band “The New Breed”. Max later went on to star with California’s “Jack Mack & The Heart Attack”, and sang and
composed 38-Specials only #1 Hit – “Second Chance”. Max recently charted on Glen Frey’s label with “Max Carl & Big Dance” – keeping
alive the soul music from the 60’s that were directly influenced by The Fabulous Flippers.
The Flippers appeared on stage with numerous stars of the day, including “The Rolling Stones” and appeared in several movies, filmed in New York. They reunited in the early 90’s and have been touring on a limited basis thrilling their fans that crave another “Flipper Dance”. The Flippers were inducted into the Iowa Music Hall of Fame in 1998 and Nebraska is honored to induct them into their Music Hall of Fame in 1999 in Lincoln, NE on August 21.
