'THE LIMITS......"SONGS ABOUT GIRLS"
 
...born in the garages of Allentown, Pa, breastfed on the sweet milk of the British Invasion.
...craft honed with countless shows and rehearsals.
...late '60's, Rick Levy and Beau Jones head to Philadelphia, teaming with pre-Hooters Hyman
   and Bazilian to form WAX...record, tour, and soak up Philly soul.
 
FFFFast forward to '79..years of music interspersed with life, meditation, medication, mediation, speculation...and the stirring of the sound known as THE LIMITS to reincarnate. Welcome Peter Smoyer and Hub Willson (of Shillings fame.) Luxury Records (The Limits' home) releases stellar LP's, EP's, singles, as did overseas friends.
 
"....songs about girls"....the DEFINITIVE collection of the should have been greatest hits...
they're all here, plus some never before heard...so LIKE THEM, LOVE THEM, TAKE THEM HOME, HANG THEM ON YOUR MIRROR!
 
Apparently Rick is "limitless"....continuing to perform with such luminaries as Herman's Hermits starring Peter Noone, Jay & the Techniques, Freddy Cannon, Tommy Roe, Gary U.S. Bonds, and many many more.

THE LIMITS are back..to take you "Back to the 60's"
The Limits, one of Eastern Pennsylvania's first garage/brit influenced bands, sprang up in Allentown, Pa., in late 1964. The Lehigh Valley was an amazing collective of musicians, teen clubs, radio DJ's, friends, and fans. Along with THE LIMITS, bands like The King's Ranson, The Shillings, Uproar, Dooley Invention, and national hitmakers Jay & the Techniques all enjoyed varying success, and played regularly at under 21 clubs such as The Purple Owl, The Mad Hatter, The Mod Mill, and King Arthur's Court.
 
Influenced by the Beatles, Stones, Kinks, Hollies, as well as soul and R&B groups, THE LIMITS played raw, passionate songs, showing a love for pop, R&B, as well as garage and party rock.
 
In 2004, THE LIMITS had a 40th reunion to an overflowing crowd of over 500 people in Allentown. Since then, they have played periodically in and around the Lehigh Valley at festivals, reunions, and private events.  Original members,
Rook, Chris, and Beau Jones, Irwin Goldberg, Rick Levy, and Hub Willson (formerly of The Shillings)..still deliver a great show, guaranteed to make your event a success!!
 
Alex Chilton, legendary singer for THE BOX TOPS and BIG STAR has called THE LIMITS..."the quintessential American garage band..both preposterous and sublime."
