Los Reactors

LOS REACTORS had its genesis in several configurations in 1978 before solidifying as THE REACTORS in 1979. The original line-up included Roger Scott on guitar, Dale Lawton on guitar, Tommy Gunn Waggoner on bass and Darrell Smith on drums. In early 1980, Dale quit and the group continued as a 3 piece. Soon thereafter, keyboardist Joe Danger (Christ) joined the group, and the name was changed to LOS REACTORS. As the Punk Rock movement exploded nationally in the late 70's and early 80's, Tulsa's LOS REACTORS were thrilling thousands of fans, and spawning dozens of imitators with their hypnotic brand of quirky, iconoclastic, high energy rock. Playing hundreds of shows throughout the midsouthwestern United States, they attracted a huge cult following. In 1980 LOS REACTORS released "Dead In The Suburbs" the first of two popular singles. The second "Be A Zombie" was released the following year. Both singles received extensive college and independent radio air-play. The group disbanded in 1983, with the members going on to pursue other projects. Unfortunately, the two 45's were the only official documentation that existed of the many great original songs by LOS REACTORS... The continuing interest in a group that disbanded more than 20 years ago is a testament to the inspired creativity that drove LOS REACTORS to write four albums worth of material, despite receiving no breaks from the establishment music industry. If the major labels hadn't been too busy looking for the next Journey or Foreigner clone to recognize the talent of LOS REACTORS, who knows what they might have accomplished.
