In a 1981 interview, George Fox reflected on his old band:

"I guess a large part of our popularity was that we knew just about everybody in school, and also because the repertoire that we did at the time was very much in keeping with what was going on. We tried to do everything that was current."

"I think that if we would have hung in there with t he original people we could have taken it quite far."

Rick Richards Christian, who became the El Caminos second drummer added:

"We had a newer sound for the day, and the copy material we did was the better stuff. The kids liked that. We were one of the first groups to do Beatle material, when the Beatles first came out, and we were just well-liked...there for awhile, we couldn't do any wrong, actually."

The El Caminos played a brand of gutsy rock and roll that went well in the dark confines of West Side. Their image was best expressed by the temperamental Fox, whose arrogance and continued outbursts added even more explosive depth to their music. The sound was tight with interesting harmonies and front vocals.

An obscure recording, Storm Warning backed with We Stand Alone was cut at Bell Sound Studios, New York City, in 1965. Penned by guitarist Tom Verano, We Stand Alone typified the twangy English sound, complete with lyrics screaming of alienation and despair.
