Sleepy Hollow released their only single on ECI (Entertainment Consultants Inc.), probably in 1969. “Feelin’ Glad” / “Missed You So” are originals by Alan Quinlan. Both sides are good rock performances with commercial pop touches.
The single is a Wakefield pressing, SJW-11238. Alan Quinlan registered these songs with the Library of Congress in February, 1969, using his full name, William Alan Quinlan.
Sleepy Hollow included at least one member of the Pheonix group Thackeray Rocke, bassist Al Quinlan.
Thackeray Rocke included:
Frank Lacey – lead vocals
Mike Kessler – lead guitar (spelled Keslar on copyright registration)
Sheldon Skinkle (aka Bunker Huddle/Jr. Ellis) – guitar
Al Quinlan – bass and vocals
Paul Buys – drums and vocals
Vince Welnick – keyboards
Quinlan co-wrote “Bawling” with lead guitarist Michael Keslar, recorded by Thackeray Rocke on Castalia Productions ARA 10671, and “Can’t You See” with Paul Buys, released on Castalia Prod., ARA 268. Both of those were cut at Audio Recorders in Phoenix and produced by Michael Wood, and Renda Music, Inc shows up in the publishing.
I suppose Thackeray Rocke split and some of the members continued as Sleepy Hollow.
Alan Quinlan has a number of other registered copyrights. From May of 1969, there are “It’s Wonderful to Love Her”, “Miss Merriwether”, and “Puzzles”, then “Good John” registered in November. In October, 1970 he registered an album’s worth of songs, including “Bottle of Wine”, “Gilted Quean” (sic – also registered as “Jilted Queen (Have You Seen My Love?)”, “Merry-Go-Round” and “Seasons”, among other titles. As far as I can tell, none of these songs saw release; perhaps demos still exist.
