[3] Realizing saxophone-driven arrangements were not on the forefront of popular music, The JuJus recruited guitarist and vocalist, Ray Hummel III, who originally worked as a folk singer.
Hired as The JuJus' manager, Geeting insisted on the group dressing uniformly, similar as The Beatles did, and it remained the band's trademark for the earlier portion of their career.
The JuJus' typical repertoire consisted of original material Hummel III was working on, cover versions of "Bits and Pieces", "Hang On Sloopy", and "Get Off of My Cloud", and later songs related to British Invasion groups.
A local DJ by the name of Larry Adderly, fond of the songs' combination of folk rock and saxophone arrangements, promoted the single on WLAV Radio, where it reached number two on the station's Favorite 40 chart in the fall of 1965.
It appeared the band was primed to achieve popularity on a national stage when Drummond Records offered a contract to distribute the group's single.
With the shuffled line-up, The JuJus released their second single, "I'm Really Sorry", on the United label, but the loss of key musicians and poor promotion prevented the group from repeated success.
In 2009, an album, You Treat Me Bad 1965-1967, containing all of the group's previously unreleased material and alternate takes was released, and in the same year The JuJus were inducted into the Michigan Rock and Roll Legends Hall of Fame.
