The Rattles are a German beat and rock band formed in Hamburg in 1960, best known for their 1970 psychedelic hit single The Witch. The Rattles performed extensively in Hamburg and appeared at several of the same venues as The Beatles in 1962. In 1968, they recorded the first version of The Witch, featuring vocals by Henner Hoier. By the time the song achieved wider success, the original lineup had been replaced by new members, with Edna Bejarano taking over as lead vocalist. Throughout the 1960s, the band enjoyed strong record sales in Germany and appeared in the 1966 German film Hurra! Die Rattles Kommen! (“Hurray! The Rattles Are Coming!”). A second version of The Witch, recorded in 1970 with Edna Bejarano on vocals, became their only international hit. It reached the Top 10 in the United Kingdom, the Top 20 in Austria, and entered the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. The single ultimately sold more than one million copies.
