Dutch band (Hilversum, 1962-1967) started playing
The Shadows repertoire. Haage Coertz, the original drummer, was replaced by
Jos Hermeler. When
Rob Poppen left the band, he was succeeded by
Jons Pistoor - he had his own jazz trio: the Trio Jons Pistoor. Pistoor played music by
Jimmy Smith, among others. Under his influence, another repertoire was developed: jazzy music with many up-tempo songs. The name
The Falcons was changed to
Sammy Soul Set. Hans Poppen joined the new band for a while, but was soon replaced by guitarist
Jan van der Voort.
