Tony and The Bandits

Anyone know what happened to this group? Apparently they had a hit in 1965 A Bit of Alright. I had a radio in my ear about 18 hrs a day during that year and never heard of this song or group. Any ideas from any of you out there?
 
I appreciate everyone's comments and how to find the song, and especially appreciated one of you sending me the MP3, but does anyone REMEMBER this group charting or ever seeing them? Like I said, I had a radio in my ear 16 hours a day during those years and NEVER heard of this group. I listened to every station that I could at that time. Even my music expert, BobontheJob had the song but didn't remember a thing about the group.
 
I have a couple of surveys from both WSAI and WCPO from July and August of 1965 showing It's A Bit of Alright in the Top 40 or Top 30 of each station. They basically became the Lemon Pipers when Tony Abramis left and was replaced by Ivan Browne

Short answer: no.
