Tee Set

This group from Delft was formed in 1965 by singer Peter Tettero (ex-Shats). After having, for the most part, played r&b, their repertoire became more and more commercial. The records came out on their own Teeset Records label.

At the time of the foundation, they were: Peter (vocals), Carry Janssen (drums, later to Nico Haak), Gerard Romeyn (bass, 1966-67 on guitar, to the Motions). In 1966 Robert Plazier (keyboards, ex-C-Sounds, later with Nico Haak) and Franklin Madjid (bass, ex-James Mean) came on board.

Hans van Eyck had already been playing regularly with them then, and composed many songs for the Tee Set. In 1967, a whole new lineup was formed: Peter, Franklin, Pierre van der Linden (drums, replaced by Joop Blom, ex-James Mean, soon thereafter), Dill Bennink (keyboards, guitar), Ferdy Karmelk (guitar, ex-James Mean and later in Les Baroques, already soon replaced by Englishman Ray Fenwick, who had played with Gene Vincent and Christian St.Peters and later found in After Tea) and Jan Pieter Boekhoorn (organ, ex-Jumping Pop-ins, later in Sympathy). Boekhoorn already left in 1967 and was followed by resp. Peter Seilberger (later in Fairy Tale, stayed until 1969) and Hans van Eyck (ex-After Tea), who then stayed permanently.

1970: Peter (vocals), Hans (keyboards), Herman van Boeyen (drums, ex-Fullhouse, already in the same year followed by Max Spangenberg), Ferry Lever (guitar, ex-After Tea, stayed till 1975), Franklin Madjid (bass). The Tee Set are still around. Polle Eduard was also a member in the beginning, playing on guitar (1965-66) and bass (1966).
