The Boss Five — “You Cheat Too Much”: Brace for the Obscure (60s rock)! — June 8, 2025

THE GREATEST SONGS OF THE 1960s THAT NO ONE HAS EVER HEARD

1,614) The Boss Five — “You Cheat Too Much”

‘65 garage gold is the B-side of the band’s only single. I believe the message is that she cheats too much.

I could find out absolutely nothing, say it again, about the band until I came across this YouTube comment by foozie8865:

My name is Marvin Anchin, and this was my band, called “the Saints” but they thought the name was too religious and changed it to the “boss five”, even though we really did not like that name. We recorded under Boss Five with impact records and Dickie Goodman who produced both sides. The band consisted of Marvin Anchin, rhythm, guitar and lead; Mike Roth, vocals and lead guitar; Rickey Dolorio, keyboards, and vocals, Rickey Berkowitz, drums. We were a great band . . . .
