Well, there was quite a debate what to name themselves! Frodo was in favor of Frodo and the Rag-Tag-Tagalongs, Sam prefered Samwise and the Gardeners, Merry suggested The Magnificent Four, and Pippin liked the sound of Pheriannath Princes.

Eventually (after much arguing)they decided on The Travellers, as that is what they were known as in the Shire. Their first big hit was "I've Been Through Mordor on a Fell-Beast With No Name" followed by the platnium chart topping, "Sweet Rosie Gamgee" (with Sam singing lead vocal and the others just kind of humming). But they are best remembered for the mega-hits, "Tooks Just Wanna Have Fun" and "My Precious".
