The Coachmen

Lincoln, Nebraska garage rock group active in the mid-1960s. Initial line-up formed around Bruce Watson (drums), Craig Perkins (bass), George "Red" Freeman (guitar), Jeff Travis (guitar), Rick Bell (organ), and Jim Reinmuth on electric piano. Reinmuth left in June 1965, while Freeman was replaced with guitarist Frank Elia in July 65. The band briefly added horn players Rusty Davis & Merle Leadley in 1966 before dropping them, and replacing a departing Rick Bell with keyboardist Kelly Kotera in late 66. The band put out one side release under the name Alexander's Rock Time Band before accepting an offer from Super K Productions to become Professor Morrison's Lollipop in 1968.
