I have their LP entitled "Brute Force". It is a one man band and all of
the LP is pretty much the same type song. It is OOP and not on CD to
the best of my knowledge.

Yep, that was their name. They released two RCA albums in the
US in 1968, MASTER JACK and FABLES, both of which I quite enjoy.
"Master Jack" itself simply must be one of the very strangest
pop songs of its era. There is no element of this song that's
not just a little bit odd. The group continued well into the
'70s in their native SA, basically becoming the country's
answer to the Carpenters.

You're in good company with your favourite track "I Want A Boy
For My Birthday" by the Cookies. My son's idol, Morrissey, once
named it in his Top 10 records of all time.
Best wishes,
David.
