Claim: The Bittersweets changed their name to Twentieth Century Zoo, then garnered enough interest from Vault Records to be signed to a major label.
Evidence: In 1966, the first incarnation of the band formed as the Bittersweets. By the suggestion of an audience member in one of the band's gigs, the band became known as the Twentieth Century Zoo in mid-1967. The band, under their new name, released two more singles that were regional successes, and garnered enough interest from Vault Records to sign them to their major label.
