About Gary Puckett
Gary Dale Puckett is an American singer widely known as the lead vocalist for Gary Puckett & The Union Gap, who had six consecutive gold records in 1968, including "Woman Woman", "Young Girl", "Lady Willpower", "Over You", "Don't Give In to Him" and "This Girl Is a Woman Now." They were now going under the name Gary Puckett & The Union Gap and would be known for hits such as "Lady Willpower", "Young Girl" and "Woman, Woman". Gary's first group was The Outcasts, which included Bobby Brown (bass), Dwight Bement (saxophone; also later member of the Union Gap), Bob Salisbury (saxophone), and Willie Kellogg (drums). On records, they wore Civil War outfits, as suggested by Puckett, and called themselves the Union Gap after the Union Gap area where Puckett had lived.
